TruKKer launches Europe-Gulf road corridors

Amid new routes emerging and the Middle East exploring alternative ways of moving cargo, TruKKer has launched road freight corridors linking the GCC and Jordan with Türkiye, Europe and Central Asia, offering an alternative route for cargo moving into and out of the Gulf. The service provides door-to-door transit of six to nine days between Türkiye and the UAE, while Europe-UAE movements take 18 to 24 days.

Gaurav Biswas, Founder and CEO, TruKKer, said: “The Gulf's supply chains have spent six months working around a constrained sea route. This corridor gives importers and exporters a door-to-door overland alternative between Europe, Türkiye, Central Asia and the GCC, with a transit time that can be planned against and with the terms stated in full before a load is booked."

The corridors cover the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman and Jordan, with European and Central Asian cargo joining the network through Türkiye. Cargo moves through Türkiye, Syria and Jordan into Saudi Arabia before onward delivery across the GCC.

The service could give shippers another option as sea routes into the Gulf face longer and less predictable transit times. Road transport can help businesses move time-sensitive cargo without relying on port handling and waiting times, while providing a direct link between production and delivery points.

Cargo will move under TIR and customs transit procedures, with transshipment in Türkiye where required. TruKKer said customers will receive status updates at border crossings, while transit times will be confirmed before bookings.
