Airport supply chain management involves ensuring that airports maintain essential equipment in stock, minimize idle items, reduce maintenance costs, and uphold a high level of inventory accuracy.
There are two major types of airport supply chain management such as internal and external. Internal supply chain management encompasses the series of internal business operations that culminate in the delivery of a product to the consumer. It consists of two main components such as software and services. This approach is applied across various applications, including security, content management, logistics, integration, collaboration, gate management, performance management, business applications, and other relevant areas within airport operations.

The airport supply chain management market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $23.51 billion in 2024 to $25.94 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to regulatory changes, globalization, security concerns, economic trends, environmental concerns.
The airport supply chain management market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $41.78 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to e-commerce growth, sustainable practices, big data and analytics, collaborative supply chains, resilience planning. Major trends in the forecast period include digital transformation, supply chain resilience, collaborative planning, automation and robotics, eco-friendly and sustainable practices.
The growth of e-commerce activities is playing a significant role in advancing airport supply chain management. E-commerce entails the buying and selling of goods and services, as well as the exchange of money or data over electronic networks, particularly the internet. Cargo planes are commonly utilized by e-commerce operators to transport their shipments, making efficient airport supply chain management essential for handling these goods effectively. For example, in 2022, the Indian e-commerce market was projected to grow by 21.5%, reaching USD 74.8 billion. According to the Indian Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), by 2030, India's e-commerce market is expected to be valued at USD 350 billion, with anticipated growth to USD 111 billion by 2024 and USD 200 billion by 2026. Therefore, the rise of e-commerce activities is a key driving force behind the growth of the airport supply chain management market.
The surge in air traffic is poised to drive the expansion of the airport supply chain management market in the foreseeable future. Air traffic involves the movement of aircraft throughout airspace, encompassing takeoffs, landings, and the en-route phases of flights. Airport supply chain management plays a pivotal role in streamlining logistics, ensuring efficient goods flow, and optimizing overall operational efficiency, thereby facilitating the smooth handling of air traffic and passenger services within airports. For example, a March 2023 report from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics revealed a substantial 30% increase in US airlines' passenger transportation in 2022, accommodating an additional 194 million passengers compared to 2021. The total passenger count for US airlines in 2022 reached 853 million, demonstrating a significant rise from 658 million in 2021 and 388 million in 2020. Therefore, the escalating air traffic is a catalyst for the expansion of the airport supply chain management market.
Major companies in the airport supply chain management market are prioritizing innovation, such as real-time updates, to enhance the passenger experience by delivering timely information directly through apps. Real-time updates involve the immediate transmission of information as events unfold, allowing users to access the most current data without delays. For example, in September 2024, Adani Airport Holdings Ltd., an India-based airline and aviation company, introduced aviio to improve airport operations by providing real-time data on passenger movement. This new platform delivers live updates on passenger and baggage flow, including information on security checks, wait times, gate changes, and baggage status, ultimately enhancing the passenger experience. Designed for collaboration among airport stakeholders, the platform enables security personnel to use smartphones to access real-time information, thereby streamlining operations and improving communication among airlines, ground staff, and retail partners.
Prominent companies in the airport supply chain management sector are intensifying their efforts to introduce all-encompassing supply chain solutions, aiming to attain a competitive advantage. These comprehensive supply chain solutions involve a holistic approach to managing every facet of the supply chain, including procurement, production, distribution, and logistics. The primary goal is to optimize operational efficiency, curtail costs, and bolster overall performance. For instance, in March 2023, A.P. Moller-Maersk, a Denmark-based shipping giant, unveiled Maersk Air Freight. This service is dedicated to offering a secure, efficient, and dependable air transportation solution for high-value and time-sensitive cargo. Maersk Air Freight aims to ensure timely delivery of cargo to its destination, allowing customers to directly engage with airlines, bypassing brokers, and mitigating associated delays and expenses.
In April 2023, SATS Ltd., a Singapore-based airline and aviation company, acquired Worldwide Flight Services for €1.3 billion. This acquisition is designed to enhance SATS's global reach and reinforce its position in the aviation services sector. The move aims to establish a more integrated network for ground handling, cargo, and various other airport services. Worldwide Flight Services, a France-based company, specializes in providing ground handling services.
