Cell & Gene Therapy Third-Party Logistics Market Growth & Trends:
The global cell and gene therapy third-party logistics market is expected to reach USD 20.04 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 11.05% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growth of the market is mainly due to rising demand for cell and gene therapies, which require precise handling, strict temperature controls, and seamless coordination between manufacturers, hospitals, and treatment centers. CGTs are patient-specific, which signifies that a single patient's cells must be collected, transported, modified, and reinfused within tight timelines. Any failure in logistics can result in the loss of an expensive, potentially life-saving therapy. The personalized nature of CGTs has increased the need for advanced cold chain logistics, with cryogenic storage and ultra-low temperature transportation becoming standard requirements.
In addition, the growing pipeline of CGT clinical trials and commercial approvals encourages logistics providers to scale their capabilities, ensuring that the increasing volume of therapies reaches patients without compromising quality. This shift is compelling biopharmaceutical companies to seek specialized 3PL partners that can handle the complexities of CGT supply chains, ensuring compliance with strict regulatory requirements while optimizing distribution efficiency. Moreover, the growing regulatory support is also one of the factors contributing to market growth. The U.S. FDA, EMA, and other global regulatory bodies impose stringent guidelines on the transportation and storage of CGTs to maintain their potency and safety. Regulatory compliance requires logistics providers to implement Good Distribution Practices (GDP) and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) standards, which govern every aspect of supply chain management, from packaging to real-time tracking. Failure to comply can result in rejected shipments, financial losses, and treatment delays for patients.
Furthermore, growing initiatives by the market players, such as partnerships and collaborations, service expansion, product launches, and increasing pipeline products, contribute to market growth. For instance, in March 2025, DHL acquired CryoPDP, a specialist in temperature-controlled logistics for life sciences. The acquisition aims to strengthen the infrastructure for handling advanced therapies. CryoPDP's expertise in ultra-cold storage and real-time monitoring solutions aligns with DHL's strategy, providing end-to-end solutions for biopharma companies.
