Report Published: "South Korea Freight Transport Report Q1 2016"

We expect to see moderate growth across the different freight modes in Korea in 2016. Road freight will post the strongest growth across the freight modes, growing by 4.6%, as the uptick in consumer spending will benefit this mode the most. Rail freight growth will increase to 3% in 2016 as the good performance of the domestic construction sector in light of the Winter Olympics in 2018 will drive demand for iron and steel. Air freight will see its growth rate decline to 2% as import demand from China for Korea ' s consumer electronics will be weak. Over the medium term, we expect the Korean freight sector to benefit from the recently ratified FTA with Vietnam.
