Riyadh - Mubasher: SAL Saudi Logistics Services Company renewed its partnership with Emirates SkyCargo to provide integrated solutions covering ground handling, air cargo, and logistics operations for the UAE carrier’s flights across airports in the Kingdom.

Under the renewed agreement, SAL will deliver comprehensive operational services ensuring the smooth flow of Emirates SkyCargo’s operations in Saudi Arabia, according to a press release.

These services include cargo ground handling, aircraft loading and offloading, and other ramp operations for flights operated by Emirates SkyCargo Airlines.

This step marks another milestone in SAL’s journey to expand its network of partnerships with leading global companies.

Omar Hariri, CEO of SAL, said: “The renewed confidence of our clients contributes to enhancing our services in line with the highest international standards and reaffirms our distinction in supporting global aviation networks, in line with the goals of the National Transport and Logistics Strategy.”

For his part, Badr Abbas, Divisional Senior Vice President, Emirates SkyCargo, commented: “With two dedicated freighters and 72 passenger flights into four gateways every week, the Kingdom has long been a key market for Emirates SkyCargo.”

“In the last financial year, we moved over 78,600 tons of goods in and out of Saudi Arabia, including specialist and delicate products such as aircraft engines, machinery and pharmaceuticals,” Abbas noted.

This collaboration reflects SAL’s contribution to positioning the Kingdom as a global logistics hub capable of meeting the increasing demands.

The Tadawul-listed company recently joined forces with Saudi Post (SPL) to bolster mail handling and transportation across the Kingdom.
