Reshaping maritime trade and logistics across the Red Sea Corridor and beyond
Middle East | Transport
In this Market Profile video, Oxford Business Group, in partnership with Folk Maritime, introduces a new Impact Report examining how global trade realignment is reshaping maritime logistics and connectivity across the Red Sea Corridor, the Arabian Peninsula, East Africa, India and South-east Asia. The report explores how shifting trade routes, infrastructure investment and technological innovation are redefining regional competitiveness and supply chain resilience. A central focus is Saudi Arabia’s emergence as a logistics and manufacturing centre, reflecting the Kingdom’s efforts to enhance efficiency, attract investment and strengthen its role as a link between Asia, Africa and Europe. The report also highlights major port modernisation programmes, digitalisation initiatives and targeted national strategies that are translating long-term ambitions into operational capacity. In addition, it examines how sustainability, localisation and innovation are supporting efficiency gains, job creation and long-term value across key maritime economies in the wider region.
