This approach is core to the sustainable development of our business and commitment to facilitating wider, global trade in an ever-changing world. What We Do We have successfully introduced market leading express delivery and logistics services to the Middle East and other emerging economies. As a leading global provider of comprehensive logistics and transportation solutions, our breadth of services include express courierdelivery, freight forwarding, logistics, supply chain management, e-commerce and record management services.

It has proved highly successful, allowing Aramexus to swiftly adapt to challenging market conditions, execute last-mile delivery solutions and quickly respond to changing customer preferences.

We also recognize that to continue to grow a truly sustainable business we must serve and develop the markets and communities where we operate. Our "Delivering Good” sustainability platform is active in over 180 educational, social and environmental projects worldwide and we have partnered with a number of international and local organizations devoted to similar causes.
