According to Saudia, the license confirms the company’s compliance with global technical and operational standards required of ground service providers.

“This license will further enhance Saudia Cargo’s ground handling capabilities and opportunities thus increasing the logistical income into the Saudi economy, in line with the Saudi Vision 2030 that aims to transform the Kingdom into a global logistics hub,” said Omar Hariri [left in photo], CEO of Saudia Cargo.
