The value of cargo moving through a logistics corridor linking Sharjah ports with Oman rose 66.2% in the first three months of operation to hit AED1.7 billion ($463 million). This comes as part of a broader strategy to develop an integrated customs ecosystem linking seaports with land border crossings.
Sharjah Ports, Customs and Free Zones Authority has announced the launch of Al Dhaid Logistics Complex, a key project aimed at boosting the country's supply chain efficiency. The first phase, which spans over 16 million sq ft, is designed to accommodate up to 1.5 million TEUs per annum.
Sharjah Ports, Customs and Free Zones Authority, in cooperation with the Sharjah Roads and Transport Authority, has exempted cargo trucks arriving from Oman and operating within the approved logistics corridor routes from toll gate fee across the Emirate of Sharjah.
