June 12, 2024

Kuehne+Nagel has marked the start of the construction of a new fulfilment and distribution centre in EZDubai, an e-commerce zone in Dubai South. The centre will be located close to Al Maktoum International Airport and connected to Jebel Ali Port via a bonded logistics corridor.

 

The new centre's location and connectivity will function as a hub for trade across the region, offering easy access to a variety of logistics solutions and benefit from the exemption of customs clearance procedures within the bonded logistics corridors.

"With the development of this new e-commerce fulfilment centre, Kuehne+Nagel continues to show commitment to the UAE and Dubai, supporting one of the fastest growing economies globally," said Lee I'Ons, GCC+ cluster managing director at Kuehne+Nagel.

 

"The new facility brings our customers ease of doing business in Dubai and across the region."

"We are committed to reinforcing the company’s expansion and growth via our advanced services and solutions and contributing to Dubai's position as a global logistics hub," he said.

 

Jonathan Emery, CEO at Aldar Development said the new fulfilment centre for Kuehne+Nagel at Dubai South is in one of the most well-connected logistics hubs in the UAE.

 

The new fulfilment centre, designed under LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Silver requirements, will offer over 23,000 square meters of state-of-the-art warehousing space, equalling about 45,000 pallet positions.

 

Kuehne+Nagel said customers will also benefit from the vast array of value-added services.

 

The centre is set to be fully operational in the second quarter of 2025.
