regulations, integration of national transport infrastructure with regional transportation
corridors in the GCC region. Oman's strategic centralized location in the Arabian Gulf
makes it ideal location for conversion into a major transshipment hub for East-West trade
route which has aided the overall growth of logistics industry of the country. The Oman
Logistics Plan 2020 and the Oman Logistics Strategy (SOLS) 2040 plan to improve the
country’s soft infrastructure, particularly the regulatory environment, support mechanisms,
and institution will majorly contribute to the growth of logistics sector in the country.
The services sector will be the growth booster for Oman’s economy, driven by a country’s
focus on logistics, transportation, and tourism industries. Amongst all freight activities in
Oman, sea transport is the predominant mode which has accounted for more than 80% of
freight in Oman handled by Sohar and Salalah Ports during 2017. As international trade
gains momentum with the expansion of cargo handling capacities in major airports, Oman is
likely to witness a steady upward growth in air freight in upcoming years. Express delivery
logistics has been increasingly gaining prominence in the country on account of increasing
demand for cold chain logistics backed with growing e-commerce in the country.
Rising Import and Export of Goods in Oman, growing air transport freight and increasing
number of enterprises in transportation industry are some other key factors that may have
positive impact on the market, according to the Analyst at Ken Research.

Forwarding Market, Warehousing Market and Value Added Services), by Third Party
Logistics, by Cold Chain Logistics, by Express Delivery and by Industries (Oil & Gas,

2022, suggests that demand for logistics in the country will grow at a stable growth rate
owing to development of logistics park by the Government backed up with growth in
manufacturing sectors.
