Malaysia’s freight and logistics sector is changing fast. Projected to grow from nearly USD 30 billion in 2025 to almost USD 38 billion by 2030, the shift from speed-focused express delivery to freight solutions is transforming how businesses trade. For industries like healthcare, electronics, and advanced manufacturing, precision, compliance, and cold-chain reliability are now business-critical.

Trade lanes are also shifting. With renewed momentum around the EU–Malaysia Free Trade Agreement and stronger Asia–Europe connectivity, exporters now have greater access to European markets, but only if they can keep pace with stricter requirements and rising logistics demands.

Woon Tien Long, Managing Director of FedEx Malaysia, shares how freight is changing the logistics game, what SMEs need to know about tariffs and trade opportunities, and how Malaysia can position itself as a key player in global supply chains.
