Move Through the Region’s Most Connected Trade Gateway

Overview of Jordan’s Transport and Logistics Sector

Jordan’s transport and logistics sector is a strategic gateway for regional and international trade, offering investors access to a fast-growing, trade-connected economy.
According to the latest figures, transport services exports grew by 22% in 2024 compared to 2019, and total exports reached USD 13.3 billion in 2024.
The sector is rapidly expanding, powered by modern infrastructure, smart mobility solutions, and policy-driven reforms.

Jordan’s geographic position links the Levant, the GCC, Egypt, North Africa, and Europe, supported by a growing network of over 2,700 km of highways, more than 22,000 trucks, and robust port and air freight capacity. Flagship assets like Queen Alia International Airport—twice awarded “Most Enjoyable Airport in the Middle East” and Aqaba Port, which is set to become the region’s first decarbonized port, reflect the country’s commitment to both quality and sustainability.

With ambitious national projects such as the National Toll Roads & Railway Network, BRT system expansion, and logistics park development, Jordan is positioned as a high-potential destination for investors seeking scalable, efficient, and future-ready logistics operations.
