KTZ Express JSC and AD Ports Group announced the launch of GulfLink Ltd., a joint venture registered in Kazakhstan. The project is aimed at developing international multimodal routes connecting Asia, the Middle East and Europe, with an emphasis on the sustainability and flexibility of logistics chains. The ownership structure is distributed as follows: 51% – AD Ports Group, 49% – KTZ Express.
GulfLink will become a key operating platform on the East-West route, promoting routes through the Middle Corridor (TITR), as well as through Pakistan, Turkey, the ports of the Persian Gulf and the Indian subcontinent. Due to the favorable geographical position of Kazakhstan, the project will facilitate the country’s integration into global transport networks.
The joint venture will use the infrastructure resources of both companies to organize uninterrupted and efficient cargo transportation. The creation of GulfLink is an important step in strengthening Kazakhstan’s position as a transit hub between China, Europe and the countries of South Asia.
