International Container Terminal Services, Inc. (ICTSI), through its business unit – Pakistan International Container Terminal (PICT), has handled the debut export shipment of Uzbekistan, from the Port of Karachi. This successful export indicates the growing trade relations between the two countries.
From Uzbekistan, the shipment reached the Port of Karachi via land transport, where preparations were made for its export to India. PICT hopes that other countries will be inspired by this action and “take advantage of Pakistan’s trade route, which offers unique geostrategic benefits.”
Khurram Aziz Khan, PICT chief executive officer, said that “PICT is working closely with the Pakistani Government and trade partners to achieve our shared goal of uplifting the country’s economy.” He added, “handling the first shipment from Uzbekistan positively reflects our efforts to further add value to the services we offer for all cargo handled at the Port of Karachi.”
