Port Access

Built around Jebel Ali, one of the world's largest man-made harbours.

Jebel Ali Port gives us multimodal access by sea, air and land, with extensive covered and open storage, container freight station services, and direct connections into the Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA) — home to roughly 12,000 trading, logistics and industrial companies.

This access lets us stage cargo, consolidate shipments across product lines, and re-export without third-party handling delays — a meaningful advantage for buyers combining products across our divisions in a single shipment.

Bonded & open storage

Covered and open storage within JAFZA, including specialised handling for hazardous and bulk liquid cargo.

Container Freight Station

Consolidation, deconsolidation and packing services for mixed general trading shipments.

Bulk liquid & tanker berths

Direct tanker access for energy and bitumen cargo, with pipeline and shore-tank connections at the port.

Hinterland connectivity

Road and rail links onward across the UAE and GCC for last-mile delivery to inland sites.

Incoterms 2020

Clear risk transfer on every contract.

Every delivery contract references an ICC Incoterms 2020 rule so both parties know exactly where cost, risk and responsibility change hands. The rules below are the ones we use most often.
