## Company Profile RAAZIQ INTERNATIONAL (PVT) LIMITED is a Pakistan‑based freight forwarder and NVOCC handling sea and air export/import shipments, customs clearance and door‑deliveries from major gateways (Karachi, Port Qasim). Contact: Tariq Mahmood Mian (Vice President). Public listings (ForwardersPages) and company site indicate traditional forwarder services to textile, agri/food and leather exporters; scale appears mid‑market (regional forwarding network vs large global integrator). Website: http://www.raaziq.com.pk ## Pain Points 1) Capacity & schedule risk: episodic blank sailings, re‑routing and containers stuck offshore during Gulf tensions create container shortages and long dwell times at Karachi/Port Qasim, making it hard for forwarders to secure slots for exporters on time-sensitive shipments. 2) Higher & volatile freight costs: spot rates on Asia–Europe and Asia–America lanes are elevated (15–40% above late‑2025 lows) with added war‑risk/bunker surcharges; low‑margin commodity exporters (non‑Basmati rice, low‑value seafood) see margins evaporate. 3) Need for alternative market access and buyer matching: rice and some food exporters face falling volumes/values and need new buyers and faster routes; forwarders who can offer market‑to‑market execution (not just booking) gain stickiness. ## Intel Summary === MULTI-DIMENSION RESEARCH === === 1.

MARKET EVENTS: TRADE & LOGISTICS, PORTS, CPEC, CURRENCY (FOCUS 2025–2026) === #### Karachi & Port Qasim congestion / utilization - Planning Commission’s **“Blue Economy under URAAN Pakistan 2026”** (published 2026) notes: - Karachi Port and Port Qasim together handle the **bulk of Pakistan’s trade**, yet overall **cargo volumes have been relatively stagnant** in recent years. - Despite capacity, ports **operate at roughly half of potential**, constrained by hinterland connectivity and procedural bottlenecks. ([inp.net.pk](https://www.inp.net.pk/ur/news-detail/inp-wealthpk/pakistans-major-ports-operate-at-half-capacity-despite-handling-most-of-national-trade?utm_source=openai)) - A 2026 policy brief (“Capitalizing on Conflict: Reimagining the Ports of Pakistan amid Gulf War”) reports: - During the **Gulf/Hormuz disruptions in early 2026**, carriers rerouted services via Pakistan; **Karachi port handled ~25% of redirected cargo in March 2026**, generating incremental revenue but also exposing infrastructure limits. ([file.pide.org.pk](https://file.pide.org.pk/pdfpideresearch/pv-58-capitalizing-on-conflict-reimagining-the-ports-of-pakistan-amid-gulf-war.pdf?utm_source=openai)) - Government/industry commentary in early 2026 mentions **~50,000 import and export containers stuck offshore** during recent Gulf tensions, triggering emergency allocation of terminal slots at Karachi, Port Qasim and Gwadar to clear backlog. ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/pakistan/comments/1rmjg7a/pakistan_offers_port_terminal_slots_to_ships/?utm_source=openai)) **Operational implications for exporters** - Chronic dependence on **road transport for ~95% of dry cargo** leads to congestion and delays on port approaches, raising truck turnaround times and indirect logistics costs for exporters. ([inp.net.pk](https://www.inp.net.pk/ur/news-detail/inp-wealthpk/pakistans-major-ports-operate-at-half-capacity-despite-handling-most-of-national-trade?utm_source=openai)) - Even before the Hormuz‑related spikes, stakeholders in late‑2025 complained of containers “stuck twice as long as in neighbouring countries,” indicating **structural inefficiency vs regional peers**. ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/pakistan/comments/1nycdc9?utm_source=openai)) --- #### New port projects & CPEC‑linked developments - **Karachi–Port Qasim–Gwadar system**: - Karachi remains the main gateway; Port Qasim east of Karachi functions as an industrial port; **Gwadar**, developed under CPEC, is expanding as a deep‑sea port and free trade zone, with berths capable of 12.5–20.5 m depth. ([en.wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_of_Karachi?utm_source=openai)) - 2026 policy analysis stresses that Pakistan’s ports are **under‑utilized relative to installed capacity**, and suggests leveraging **transshipment potential** as shipping lines reroute around conflict zones. ([file.pide.org.pk](https://file.pide.org.pk/pdfpideresearch/pv-58-capitalizing-on-conflict-reimagining-the-ports-of-pakistan-amid-gulf-war.pdf?utm_source=openai)) - By March–April 2026, official data cited in industry commentary show **transshipment volumes at Karachi reaching 8,860 containers in just 24 days**, slightly exceeding **full‑year 2025 transshipment of 8,300 containers**—a material step‑change in hub activity. ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/pakistan/comments/1s76pje/pakistani_ports_emerge_as_safe_trade_hub/?utm_source=openai)) **CPEC and logistics corridors** - Recent debates on CPEC (early 2026) emphasize: - CPEC can still deliver logistics benefits, but only if Pakistan focuses on **commercial viability (treating China as investor, not rescuer)** and addresses fundamentals such as power tariffs, governance and regulatory predictability. ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/pakistan/comments/1qn0hh6/cpec_update/?utm_source=openai)) - CPEC‑linked road and rail projects are intended to **shift some cargo from road to multimodal corridors**, but as of 2026, the Planning Commission still notes **95%+ of dry cargo moving by road**, suggesting that modal shift is slow and benefits are yet to fully materialize.

DEMAND SIGNALS: FREIGHT RATES & CONTAINER / AIR CARGO (PAKISTAN‑RELATED, 2025–2026) === *Direct lane‑specific data for “Karachi to Europe/Middle East/South Asia” are sparse; most benchmarks are Asia‑wide (incl. South Asia). Below combines global indices with Pakistan‑specific qualitative indicators.* #### Ocean freight rate levels (2026 YTD) - Freightos/Baltic indices and related commentary for **late April 2026** indicate: - **Asia–Europe** container rates are **>15% higher YoY** for both north Europe and Med lanes, and **>50% above October 2025** (the last low‑demand trough). ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/zim/comments/1sy97nu/freightos_weekly_update_april_28_2026_excerpts/?utm_source=openai)) - Asia–US east coast rates just below **US$4,000/FEU**, about **30% higher** than pre‑war (pre‑Hormuz conflict) levels and 30% above October lows. While this is a Trans‑Pacific lane, it signals a **generalized post‑conflict premium** in long‑haul container trade. ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/zim/comments/1sy97nu/freightos_weekly_update_april_28_2026_excerpts/?utm_source=openai)) - For South Asia specifically (including Pakistan and India), carriers have applied **war‑risk and re‑routing surcharges** after the Strait of Hormuz closure/tensions, keeping **spot rates elevated despite being a seasonally weak period**. ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/zim/comments/1sy97nu/freightos_weekly_update_april_28_2026_excerpts/?utm_source=openai)) **Implications for Karachi outbound lanes** - Karachi’s main export routes for rice/textiles/seafood/leather are to **EU, UK, Middle East/GCC, East/South‑East Asia and North America**. With Asia–Europe benchmarks up 15–50% over late‑2025 lows and additional Gulf‑risk premiums, **Karachi–Europe spot rates in early 2026 are likely 20–40% above their October 2025 floor**, depending on contract vs spot exposure (inferred from regional indices). ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/zim/comments/1sy97nu/freightos_weekly_update_april_28_2026_excerpts/?utm_source=openai)) - For **shorter‑haul lanes** (Karachi–Gulf/Middle East, Karachi–South Asia), base rates are lower in absolute USD/TEU terms but impacted by the same risk and bunker surcharges, leading to **double‑digit percentage increases** vs late‑2025. ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/zim/comments/1sy97nu/freightos_weekly_update_april_28_2026_excerpts/?utm_source=openai)) --- #### Container availability, blank sailings & congestion (Pakistan focus) - During Gulf tensions in early 2026: - Government and port authorities reported **≈50,000 containers (import + export) stuck offshore**, effectively tying up equipment and reducing immediate container availability for exporters from Karachi and Port Qasim. ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/pakistan/comments/1rmjg7a/pakistan_offers_port_terminal_slots_to_ships/?utm_source=openai)) - High‑level meetings between the Maritime Affairs Ministry and port authorities focused on allocating **additional terminal slots and accelerating transshipment handling** to clear backlog, implicitly responding to schedule disruptions and blank/re‑routed sailings. ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/pakistan/comments/1rmjg7a/pakistan_offers-port-terminal-slots-to-ships/?utm_source=openai)) - Planning Commission analysis underscores that with ports operating below capacity and 95% of dry cargo moved by road, **land‑side congestion rather than pure berth capacity** is a key bottleneck—creating **longer dwell times** and intermittent container shortages during shock events. ([inp.net.pk](https://www.inp.net.pk/ur/news-detail/inp-wealthpk/pakistans-major-ports-operate-at-half-capacity-despite-handling-most-of-national-trade?utm_source=openai)) **Blank sailings & schedule reliability** - Global reports around the Hormuz conflict and Red Sea detours point to: - Increased **schedule unreliability** and blank/re‑routed sailings on Asia–Europe and Asia–Middle East corridors. - For Pakistan, this manifests as **irregular vessel calls**, last‑minute port omission or reordering, and bunching of arrivals, which worsen yard congestion and raise exporters’ risk of missed shipment windows.

([file.pide.org.pk](https://file.pide.org.pk/pdfpideresearch/pv-58-capitalizing-on-conflict-reimagining-the-ports-of-pakistan-amid-gulf-war.pdf?utm_source=openai)) - Given elevated ocean rates and schedule risk, **airfreight has become a tactical safety valve** for Pakistani exporters of time‑sensitive or perishable goods, though the high cost limits its use mainly to higher‑margin segments (premium garments, leather goods, pharmaceutical and high‑value seafood products). ([seafoodsource.com](https://www.seafoodsource.com/news/supply-trade/pakistan-seafood-exports-set-volume-record-in-2024-25-fiscal-year-but-fall-short-of-value-targets?utm_source=openai)) --- #### Net freight & logistics demand signals for 2026 - **Freight cost environment**: Into 2Q 2026, Pakistan‑linked exporters are operating in a **structurally higher cost regime**, with ocean spot rates on key corridors ~15–40% above late‑2025 lows and additional war‑risk/bunker surcharges. ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/zim/comments/1sy97nu/freightos_weekly_update_april_28_2026_excerpts/?utm_source=openai)) - **Equipment & congestion risk**: Episodic shocks (Gulf tensions) produce **short‑term container scarcity** and longer turn‑arounds at Karachi/Port Qasim, which disproportionately hurt lower‑margin bulk commodities like **non‑Basmati rice** and frozen low‑value seafood versus higher‑value textiles and leather that can better absorb higher logistics costs.
