    Gulftainer, a UAE-based logistics and port services provider, is strengthening its contribution to Sharjah’s emergence as a regional hub for multimodal trade and transport.

    Gulftainer manages key logistics assets including multi-purpose ports and terminals, inland transport networks, and integrated logistics hubs.

    The newly launched Sharjah ICD – the UAE’s first bonded inland container depot, and K-Flow – newly developed integrated logistics facility within the bonded zone of Khorfakkan Commercial Terminal, further enhance Sharjah’s position as the first gateway into the UAE and the wider region, making it a major milestone in Gulftainer’s transformation journey.

    The new facilities reportedly provide vital multimodal connectivity between seaports and  inland markets. Together, these smart, scalable hubs reportedly form the foundation of a next-generation logistics ecosystem.

    Farid Belbouab, Group CEO of Gulftainer, said: “As global supply chains demand greater connectivity, we continue to invest in a multimodal logistics covering sea, land, and rail.

    “We 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.

    “Our multimodal expansion will serve as a powerful driver of Gulftainer’s continued growth. The future of logistics is integrated, intelligent, and interconnected across land, sea, and rail — and Gulftainer is ready to lead the way.”

    Last month, Gulftainer launched “K-Flow,” a scalable integrated logistics facility within Khorfakkan Commercial Terminal’s bonded zone.
