In a post on its X platform yesterday, Mwani Qatar stated, “This distinguished ranking serves as global recognition of Hamad Port’s exceptional operational efficiency and high performance, reinforcing Qatar’s standing as a key regional hub for trade and logistics. It also highlights the port’s critical role in driving the nation’s economic growth, positioning it as a strategic link in global supply chains and a trusted transshipment hub in the region.”
