Saudi Arabia to raise number of logistics zones from 22 to 59 by 2030

This move is part of the kingdom’s wider strategy to attract local and global investments.

The sixth edition of the Supply Chain Conference in Riyadh witnessed signing of 91 agreements worth SAR 8.3 billion ($2.20 billion) aimed at developing operations and efficiency of supply chains, an official news agency reported.

Al-Jasser said the integration of various transport modes—such as ports, airports, and railways—into a unified and efficient system will boost competitiveness and facilitate seamless trade flows.

“The focus will remain on bolstering maritime shipping routes, expanding air freight operations, increasing rail freight capacities, and activating logistics centers to support sustainable development, further cementing the Kingdom's role as a global logistics hub and a vital link in international supply chains,” he said.
