Oman's ports, particularly Sohar and Salalah, are playing a vital role in facilitating food exports from India to six Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries—Saudi Arabia, UAE, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, and Bahrain—amid disruptions caused by the ongoing Iran war and tensions in the Strait of Hormuz. These GCC nations import approximately 85% of their food requirements, making India a key supplier. Sohar port, established in 2004, features a dedicated terminal for bulk agricultural products and is strategically located outside the Strait, enabling efficient access to major global markets. Additionally, the Port of Salalah, known for its advanced operations and high-speed container unloading, hosts over 2,500 vessel calls annually, further enhancing its capacity to support Indian food exports. This collaboration is crucial for ensuring food security in the Gulf region during challenging times.
