Onshoring is one of our Top 10 Investment Themes for 2026. The U.S. operates one of the most advanced and robust supply chains in the world, particularly in managing domestic freight volume and technological adoption. The domestic highway system and public roads span over 4 million miles, providing comprehensive coverage for truck transport, which accounts for the largest share of U.S. domestic freight movement by value and weight for short-haul trips. The U.S. also has the world's largest and most cost-efficient freight rail system, running on nearly 140,000 route miles. Unlike most state-owned foreign railroads that prioritize passenger service, the U.S. network is largely private, allowing for billions in private capital investment to focus on freight efficiency. This system moves significantly more freight per person per year than in the European Union or Japan. Further, the U.S. supply chain is highly advanced in its use of technology. The boom in e-commerce has driven significant growth and innovation in U.S. third-party logistics services, creating highly complex and dynamic supply-chain solutions. Private companies continually invest in automation, warehouse robotics, visibility software, and information technology to improve safety and efficiency. The focus on the supply chain is only likely to increase in the years ahead. President Trump is promoting onshoring through a combination of tariffs, deregulation, tax incentives, and executive orders designed to encourage companies to move their manufacturing back to the U.S. The largest segment of the U.S. supply chain in terms of shipment weight is trucking.
