(EU27 - 2011), is observable in the turnover diagram due to a perceptible share of the overall revenue (1.9% of the € 936 bn for the EU27). Such results show that seemingly small sectors with a very small number of companies can be of relatively high relevance. This is due to different sizes of companies in the different subsectors.
Figure 2.12 below compares the average turnover per enterprise results. The observation on large companies in the rail freight sector is validated by this evaluation, as the green bars, showing the freight rail transport sector (H492), are prominent. The highest turnover per company is generated in the pipeline transport sector (H495), followed by the freight rail transport sector. The EU27 average size of the companies of this sector is € 34.7 m. Considering that the railway transport business has often historically grown around one monopolist, a very high market concentration still exists in many European countries27. For 7 of the 18 (about 40%) observed EU Member States, the number of competitors in this market segment is under 10. Other sectors that are clearly identified with a high per company turnover are the sea and coastal freight water transports (H502) as well as freight air transport activities (H512). However, big carriers mostly operate in these business fields as market entrance barriers for small companies are very high due to a necessary high level of fixed costs like infrastructural investments (sea ports, airports, terminals, etc.) and investments in ships or aircrafts.
The road freight transport sector (H494) holds the lowest turnover per company with a turnover of around € 500,000 per year and therefore is not even noticeable in a single bar of the structural overview. The same applies for inland freight water transport (H504) and other postal and courier activities (H532).
