WRI’s assessment

Sweden’s Logistics Growth Index advanced to 55.1 in June, a 1.1-point month-on-month gain that propelled the nation to first place among sixteen European peers. The expansion was primarily driven by robust business activity and strong investor appetite, with the Business Volume and Warehousing indices posting significant gains as manufacturing output and retail sales surged.
