Q Custom Service Smart Logistics
Transport corridor North-South
A new route for container deliveries to/from the Persian Gulf, India and East Africa to Russia via Iran using the modern infrastructure of the Bandar Abbas port. Cheaper and faster than the Suez Canal, bypassing all of Europe.
Benefits of the route
- Shorter transit time compared to the Mediterranean and Suez Canal route
- The cost of delivery via North-South is lower
- In the long term, the route will be a credible alternative to the others because of possible worsening sanctions pressures
- Infrastructure in Iran is actively developing.
- In the future, the port in Astrakhan will be modernised with dredging to allow large vessels to enter
- Discussions are already underway at the Russian government level to allow barges and small Iranian-flagged vessels to carry out coastal transport on Russian rivers and canals, which would make it possible to carry from Iran actually to Moscow and St Petersburg without additional congestion.
- In the near future the railway line to the border with Azerbaijan will be finally completed. All this points to the possibility of further reductions in delivery costs and transit times. The geography and logic itself suggest that this route through Iran is promising.
