Gulftainer is performing a crucial role in Sharjah’s transformation into a leading multimodal logistics hub, delivering scalable, seamless logistics solutions that enable uninterrupted trade across the UAE, the inner Gulf, and international markets via Khorfakkan Commercial Terminal.
As the UAE continues enhancing connectivity through major infrastructure projects like Etihad Rail, Gulftainer is strategically positioned as a critical partner to accelerate integrated logistics capabilities development and drive greater supply chain efficiency.
Sharjah occupies a unique position as the emirate with infrastructure and population on both UAE eastern and western seaboards, providing strategic geographic advantages.
By enhancing multimodal connectivity across sea, land, and soon rail, Sharjah is emerging as a key logistics and transportation hub for regional and global trade.
The newly launched Sharjah ICD, the UAE’s first bonded inland container depot, and K-Flow, newly developed integrated logistics facility within Khorfakkan Commercial Terminal’s bonded zone, further enhance Sharjah’s position as the first gateway into the UAE and wider region, representing a major milestone in Gulftainer’s transformation journey.
Farid Belbouab, Group CEO of Gulftainer, stated they are developing integrated hubs that facilitate seamless cargo movement from ports to inland destinations, improve cargo velocity, and offer customers greater reach and flexibility in their logistics operations.
The new facilities provide vital multimodal connectivity between seaports and inland markets.
Together, these smart, scalable hubs form the foundation of a next-generation logistics ecosystem fully aligned with Gulftainer’s vision for a future-ready, resilient supply chain network.
