Market Intelligence support

As a committed stakeholder in developing the Central Asian and South Caucasian logistics market, APM Terminals offers market intelligence support to help increased visibility for its potential customers. By constantly monitoring open-source data in our region, we have been able to generate well-informed conclusions on existing commodities, trade flow directions, and cargo owners, which we are eager to share publicly.

Commodities are an essential part of understanding the market. After investing our time and effort into researching the region, we have gained a thorough understanding of the import and export commodities for each of our focus countries. By organizing the market using the Harmonized System (HS), we can provide insightful opinions on each commodity of interest to our customers, explore possibilities for containerization, and offer estimates on the expected volume and value of each commodity market.

We not only understand the market but also analyze its vulnerabilities. Observing laden/empty container volumes and overall cargo flow is our primary tool to actively identify market challenges, detect existing choke points, and seek opportunities to increase cargo capacity.

Finally, our years of presence in the region and active use of available open-source data allow us to gain valuable insights into existing cargo owners and major transport companies. Providing highly granular and reliable data to our customers is our key contribution to this previously unexplored and less visible market.

APM Terminals Poti supports both existing and new market participants. We hope that by committing our resources to bringing greater visibility to the region, we will pave the way for a more advanced and prosperous future for the Central Asian and South Caucasian countries.
