Naqel grows end-to-end logistics network in GCC

Naqel Express has expanded its integrated multimodal logistics operations across Saudi Arabia and the GCC, combining road, air, and sea transport with last-mile delivery, customs clearance support, and end-to-end digital tracking to move cargo more efficiently across regional and global trade routes.

The system is designed to connect different stages of cargo movement into a single flow, reducing delays between ports, airports, and inland distribution points. By linking transport modes with clearance processes, it aims to shorten transit times and improve the movement of goods across borders. The setup also supports faster handling of shipments in sectors such as e-commerce, retail, and temperature-sensitive cargo, where timing and coordination are critical.

For the logistics sector, this type of integrated model helps reduce fragmentation in supply chains, where cargo often slows down while switching between carriers or clearance points. With improved visibility tools, operators can track shipments in real time, which helps reduce uncertainty in planning and inventory management. It also supports better use of transport capacity across different modes, helping balance road, air, and sea networks more efficiently.

The company said the approach is aligned with Saudi Arabia’s wider logistics push under Vision 2030, where smoother cargo flows and stronger regional connectivity are key goals for trade growth and supply chain efficiency.
