Khalifa Fund, NXN expand logistics solutions for SMEs

Khalifa Fund for Enterprise Development and National Network for Logistics (NXN), a 7X company, have signed an MoU to provide logistics solutions for Emirati enterprises, covering shipping, delivery, reverse pickup and cash-on-delivery services. The partnership will give small and medium-sized businesses access to a wider logistics network to support their operations across the UAE and GCC markets.

Through the agreement, Khalifa Fund members will be able to use NXN’s nationwide delivery network and logistics platform Waslah, which provides shipment tracking and reporting features. The services include express delivery within the UAE, GCC shipping options and support in areas such as Al Ain and Al Dhafra.

Abdulaziz Alhammadi, General Manager of NXN, said: “Supporting SMEs and entrepreneurs is a key priority for NXN, reflecting our belief in their role as a driver of economic growth and diversification. This partnership demonstrates our commitment to leveraging our nationwide network and integrated logistics capabilities to help Emirati businesses operate more efficiently and expand into new markets. We are proud to partner with Khalifa Fund in advancing a shared vision of empowering entrepreneurship across the UAE by providing practical enablers that support the sustainable growth and long-term success of national enterprises.” 

The collaboration aims to address logistics challenges faced by SMEs by improving delivery efficiency, shipment visibility and access to customers in different markets. As smaller businesses increasingly depend on reliable supply chains and faster deliveries, logistics support can play a key role in helping them scale operations.

The partnership also includes defined service levels, performance monitoring and preferential shipping rates for participating businesses. It was signed during Khalifa Fund’s participation at the Liwa Date Festival 2026, where the fund is supporting national enterprises.
