The UAE e-commerce market is expected to be worth USD 9.20 billion by 2026, up by nearly 92% from 2021, as online sales continue to soar. The acceleration of e-commerce over the past two years has triggered a shift toward digitalization in the logistics sector in the country. Government investment in infrastructure development of road, rail, air, and water transport facilities is anticipated to drive the freight and logistics industry in the coming years.
- During the forecast period, the overall end-user segment of the UAE freight and logistics market is expected to record a CAGR of 6.65%. The oil and gas, quarrying, and mining end-user segment is projected to record the highest CAGR of 7.09%, followed by the wholesale and retail trade end-user segment with a CAGR of 4.62%. An increase in oil and gas production is expected to drive the growth of the oil and gas, mining, and quarrying end-user segment.
