  • The Brunei freight & logistics market was valued at USD 157.25 million in 2017. Investments in land transport infrastructure and services remain crucial for Brunei’s future economic and social development. At the same time, the country faces various significant challenges, such as congestion, journey time delay, and pollution. Additionally, concerns over road safety are becoming increasingly evident and imminent for public debate. Without action, these problems are expected to result in negative consequences: raising costs for individuals, communities, and investors, damaging future economic growth, undermining social inclusion, and reducing quality of life for Bruneians, as well as those who visit and do business in the country. However, the outlook for the market is bright, given the various opportunities within, be it from oil & gas sector (both upstream and downstream) and even emerging areas, such as the Halal industry and the Islamic Finance Industry (requiring building of office space and logistics services for construction industry).

    Insights on Freight Forwarding

    The biggest opportunity in Brunei Darussalam currently seems to be in the multi-trillion dollar Halal industry. The country maintains a pristine image and is looked upon by the Islamic world as a center of Islamic culture. The Brunei Halal brand was a first mover concept. The strategic location of Brunei for China and its synergies with the Belt and Road project, open up immense opportunities for the Halal certification industry in Brunei. The connections of China with Middle Eastern and Central Asian countries which are being established through the Belt and Road Initiative, open up immense opportunities for Brunei Darussalam, situated like a crown jewel in the South China Sea, also an area of extreme importance to China. Coupled with oil and gas reserves, Chinese government is able to see a lot of opportunities in Brunei and has been ramping up investments in the country at a breakneck speed. One of the key objectives of setting up the Guangxi – Brunei Economic Corridor is to tap the Halal trade, and hence, even a bio-innovation zone is being developed and augmented post this partnership, which was formalized in 2014 and has been maintaining considerable momentum thereafter.
