Investing in the Transportation & Logistic Sector
Afghanistan shares borders Iran, Pakistan, China, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and Tajikistan. Historically, it has served as trade route for many years connecting Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. Afghanistan has been the traditional trade bridge for up to two billion people around the world. It also provides support to other sectors operating in the country.
The existing number of vehicles (lorries, buses, cars, motorcycles, etc.) in Afghanistan is 1,866,283. In the past decade Afghanistan has made phenomenal progress in its infrastructure for transportation not only inside the country, but also to neighbouring countries.
