The meeting was chaired by Eng. Sultan bin Saeed Al Mansoori, Chairman of Dubai Chambers, and was attended by Dr. Abdulla Mohammed Busenad, Director-General of Dubai Customs; Mohammad Ali Rashed Lootah, President and CEO of Dubai Chambers, and Ahmad Yousef Al-Hassan, CEO and Managing Director of DP World GCC, together with leaders from major private sector companies.
The session featured an interactive discussion on the key challenges facing the shipping and logistics sector amid current regional developments. Participants also explored a range of practical ideas and solutions, in cooperation with relevant partners, to ensure the smooth flow of goods and enhance supply chain efficiency.
"Supported by proactive government policies, close cooperation between the public and private sectors, and strong institutional agility, Dubai’s logistics network has strengthened the private sector’s ability to respond to the challenges arising from the recent developments affecting the region and the wider world, further consolidating Dubai’s position as a key hub on the global trade map," Al Mansoori said.
