The UAE’s transport and supply chain systems continue to operate smoothly and efficiently, ensuring the uninterrupted flow of goods and services despite evolving regional dynamics, according to Suhail Mohamed Al Mazrouei, Minister of Energy and Infrastructure.
Al Mazrouei said the country’s logistics network is supported by a comprehensive national framework led by the Supply and Transport Committee. The system is designed to maintain market stability while strengthening resilience and readiness across all supply chain operations.
He highlighted the committee’s central role in overseeing freight movement, monitoring shipments, and coordinating with federal and local entities. These efforts are backed by flexible operational mechanisms that allow for quick adaptation to changing conditions and ensure consistent supply chain performance.
A dedicated national team has also been established to oversee freight operations, enhance alternative transport routes, and monitor market conditions. This initiative aims to maintain the steady flow of essential goods and improve response times to emerging challenges.
The UAE has implemented regulatory measures that include assessing demand for essential goods, updating priority lists, and coordinating closely with port operators to streamline handling, transport, and storage processes. Flexible licensing measures for transport companies have also been introduced to support uninterrupted logistics services.
Ports across the country continue to demonstrate strong operational performance, handling more than 25,000 containers since early March 2026. Enhanced maritime readiness, particularly along the eastern coast, and improved road and rail connectivity have further strengthened cargo movement.
Al Mazrouei said these efforts reinforce the UAE’s position as a leading global logistics hub, underpinned by proactive planning, advanced infrastructure, and strong public-private partnerships.
