French shipping and logistics group CMA CGM is deploying alternative multimodal solutions that combine sea, rail, and road transport to maintain the smooth flow of logistics operations despite the situation in the Strait of Hormuz. The company is providing logistics corridors via the United Arab Emirates. Located south of the Strait of Hormuz, Khor Fakkan, Fujairah, and Sohar serve as strategic entry points for Gulf-bound flows. From these ports, CMA CGM offers logistics corridors to serve the main hubs in the UAE (Khalifa, Jebel Ali, Sharjah) and other countries bordering the Arabian Gulf, via a combination of regional road and maritime transport. This opens an alternative road corridor via Saudi Arabia. The port of Jeddah on the Red Sea also provides an alternative to passing through the Strait of Hormuz. From Jeddah, CMA CGM has established road corridors, with or without maritime connections, for onward delivery to Dammam in Saudi Arabia, as well as to the UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, and Iraq. This setup also allows flows to connect to the Mediterranean and Asia without exposure to the Strait. The company also leverages Omani ports to provide a third major alternative road route. These ports enable road connections to the UAE and northern Gulf countries, combining road and feeder services to offer a reliable alternative for regional and cross-border flows.
