Saudi logistics expansion boosts global links

The logistics and trade system in Saudi Arabia experienced significant expansion in 2025, with non-oil exports rising to 624 billion SAR, an increase of 15% compared to 2024. Meanwhile, re-export value grew by 53% to reach 139 billion SAR. This growth is driven by government efforts, supported by FedEx, which continued to expand its operational presence through the development of air and land transportation networks, and launched the first direct air freight route connecting the Kingdom to the United States and Europe without stops, utilizing Boeing 777 aircraft. Additionally, regional services now connect Saudi Arabia with Gulf Cooperation Council countries and Jordan. The quality of exports also improved, with a higher proportion of value-added goods, particularly in the machinery and equipment sector, which increased from 11 billion SAR in 2021 to 74 billion SAR in 2025. This reflects industrial expansion and a shift in the types of products being exported, highlighting the importance of developing logistical capabilities for time-sensitive sectors. Saudi Arabia is focusing on supporting small and medium-sized enterprises and e-commerce to bolster exports, through programs that organize workshops and collaborate with the Saudi Export Development Authority. The goal is to build a flexible, advanced logistics ecosystem that enhances integration with global markets, in line with Saudi Vision 2030 objectives.
