The free webinar will take place on December 4th 2025 at 11:00hrs CET. Join us to discover the key role that the Transport & Logistic sector plays in the economy of Spain, and learn more about the prospects for growth and collaboration between companies in both countries. The webinar will offer a comprehensive overview of the Spanish Transport & Logistic ecosystem, its capabilities and opportunities, as well as practical information on how to develop a successful productive investment in Spain.

Spain’s transportation and logistics sector plays a pivotal role in the country’s economic development, territorial cohesion, and global competitiveness. Spain, due to its geostrategic location, high-quality logistics infrastructure, and strong trade ties with Europe, Africa, and Latin America, has established itself as a key node in international logistics chains.

The sector contributes significantly to Spain’s GDP and employment, encompassing road, rail, maritime, and air transport. Its extensive network of highways and railways facilitates efficient movement of goods across the Iberian Peninsula, while major ports such as Algeciras, Valencia, and Barcelona rank among the busiest in Europe, handling millions of tons of cargo annually. These ports not only connect Spain to global markets but also serve as key hubs for transshipment and intermodal transport.

In recent years, Spain has emerged as a leader in logistics innovation, embracing digital platforms, automation, and artificial intelligence to optimize operations. Public-private partnerships and EU funding have supported infrastructure upgrades and sustainability initiatives, positioning Spain as a competitive logistics hub in the global market.
