Karachi: Port Qasim is set for a major upgrade with the development of a new Energy City and a multipurpose terminal to improve cargo handling, fuel storage, and industrial operations. Officials say the expansion will strengthen trade activity and improve logistics infrastructure at one of Pakistan’s busiest ports. The project is important because better port capacity can support imports, exports, energy supply chains, and industrial growth. It may also increase demand for warehousing, transport networks, commercial land, and industrial real estate around port-linked corridors. Stronger logistics infrastructure can reduce business costs and improve investor confidence in energy and trade sectors. Can this upgrade strengthen Pakistan’s long-term economic and energy planning?
