PEKAES, a leading logistics operator, is recording a steady increase in the volume of goods it transports to the Middle East. Transport in this direction is carried out mainly by sea, and the scope of services provided includes handling cargo from customers’ doors to ports in the Middle East. Together with local partners, the company also carries out deliveries within countries in this part of the world.
PEKAES carried out its first transports to the Middle East in the 1970s. The company’s trucks traveled to Iran, Iraq, Syria, and Kuwait, among others. Currently, the company provides much more advanced logistics services on a much larger scale. This is mainly the transport of cargo by sea, including to Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq.
Last year, PEKAES transported over 500 containers to the Middle East. In the first half of 2017 alone, the company transported almost 400 containers. PEKAES mainly delivers building materials, laboratory equipment, rubber granules, as well as furniture and toys to countries in the Middle East region.
– Thanks to the support of local agents, we can offer our customers the opportunity to carry out even very complex logistics operations in the Middle East. A modern warehouse also enables us to efficiently handle all projects. Thanks to its excellent location and full use of the PEKAES terminal network, we can act quickly and effectively, providing customers with service at the highest level – says Kajetan Jagłowski, Director of Sea and Air Freight at PEKAES.
In terms of international groupage, PEKAES also provides services from Turkey (Istanbul) to Poland (Czechowice-Dziedzice).
– Where required, we provide our customers with full customs clearance, as well as numerous additional port services. And all this thanks to our own sea and port freight offices in Gdynia and Szczecin – adds Kajetan Jagłowski.
