Using the Country Hub

1. What Is the Country Hub?

The Country Hub is a dedicated area for exploring logistics intelligence at the country level. It brings together provider data, market sizing, M&A activity, major contracts, and industry insights — all for a single country of your choice.

Access the Country Hub from the header navigation under Geography > Country Hub.

Unlike individual country entity pages, the Country Hub provides a consolidated view with quick switching between countries, making it ideal for regional analysis and benchmarking.

2. Selecting and Browsing Countries

The Country Selector on the left-hand side lets you choose which country to explore. Countries are organised by region for easy browsing — expand a region to see its countries, or use the search bar at the top to find a specific country quickly.

Selecting a Country: Click any country name in the sidebar to load its data. The main content area updates immediately to show information for your selected country.

Region Grouping: Countries are grouped under their parent regions (e.g., Europe, Asia Pacific, Americas). This grouping helps you quickly locate countries within a specific geographic area.

Tip: If you regularly analyse the same set of countries, use the Favourites feature (described below) to keep them easily accessible at the top of the sidebar.

3. Favourite Countries

The Favourites feature lets you bookmark the countries you work with most often for instant access.

How to Favourite a Country: 1. Find the country in the sidebar. 2. Click the star icon next to its name. 3. The country is added to your Favourites section at the top of the sidebar.

Favourited countries appear as quick-access chips above the country list, so you can switch between your most-used countries with a single click — no scrolling or searching needed.

Removing a Favourite: Click the star icon again to remove a country from your favourites. It remains in the full country list; it simply no longer appears in the quick-access section.

Your favourites are saved to your account and persist across sessions.

4. The Overview Tab

When you select a country, the Overview tab is shown by default. It provides a high-level snapshot of the logistics landscape for that country.

Summary Cards at the top display key metrics — these give you a quick sense of the country's logistics market size and activity at a glance.

Below the summary, the overview brings together highlights from across the other tabs, including recent news and updates related to the country. This makes it a useful starting point before diving into the more detailed tabs.

5. Exploring the Data Tabs

Beyond the Overview, the Country Hub offers a series of specialised tabs that break down different aspects of the country's logistics landscape:

Providers — A grid of logistics service providers operating in the country. Click any provider to view their full profile.

Mergers & Acquisitions — M&A transactions involving companies in this country, displayed in a sortable and filterable grid.

Major Contracts — Significant contract awards and partnerships linked to this country.

Market Sizing — Market size data and forecasts specific to this country, presented in a data table you can sort and explore.

Local Heroes — Key local logistics players and companies headquartered in or closely associated with this country.

Thematics — Thematic topics (such as sustainability or e-commerce logistics) with relevance to this country.

Markets — Logistics market segments active in this country, displayed as clickable cards.

Each tab focuses on a different dimension, letting you build a comprehensive picture of any country's logistics ecosystem.

6. Latest Updates

The Latest Updates tab shows recent news briefs and articles that mention the selected country. This keeps you informed about current developments without having to search separately.

Articles are pulled from across the platform based on relevance to the selected country, so you get a curated news feed specific to your chosen market.

Click any article to read the full content. This tab is particularly useful for staying on top of breaking news, regulatory changes, or market developments in countries you are actively monitoring.
