Why Last Mile Automation
Is No Longer Optional

2025 industry data driving automation urgency

The last mile now represents 53% of total shipping cost globally — up from 41% in 2018. US transportation and warehousing labor costs rose 19.2% between 2020 and 2024 (Bureau of Labor Statistics). Meanwhile, 51% of retail shoppers now prefer same-day delivery, and e-commerce hit $6 trillion globally in 2025. Companies that automate now lock in a structural cost advantage that becomes increasingly difficult for manual operations to close.
