While rising global geopolitical uncertainty, international conflicts and trade matters are impacting on the global transportation and logistics sector, Thailand is progressively investing in transport and deep-sea port infrastructure, including the development of the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC), with a view to positioning itself as a future international trading gateway to ASEAN markets and beyond.
Key infrastructure projects are expected to bring increased transshipment volumes and larger container vessels to those deep-sea ports, presenting opportunities and associated risks for container terminal operators and related transportation and logistics businesses in Thailand.
In addition to major infrastructure upgrades, the rise of e-commerce has seen both major international and domestic logistics operators invest in automation and warehousing developments across Thailand.
