The magazine examined 150 free and special economic zones around the world before determining its list.
"We are delighted that Bahrain's logistics capability has been recognized in this report," Kamal bin Ahmed, minister of transportation and acting chief executive of the Bahrain Economic Development Board, said.
Bahrain expects economic investment to expand even further in the future.

"With a number of projects for further investments planned over the coming years, including the expansion of Bahrain International Airport, we are confident that Bahrain's position as the best location for companies looking to access the Gulf economy will endure."
