Aramex Bahrain, ,in partnership with Export Bahrain, will provide Bahrain-based businesses LTL (less than truckload) services to further support the exports of made-in Bahrain products to all locations around the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

As part of the LTL service, companies will receive below-market rates based on the city destination which applies to both B2B and B2C export deals. There will be regular shipments for all general cargo which will give exporters a new entry option to the Saudi market, adding to the current full truckload (FTL) option and providing businesses with more variety and exporting options.

Aramex Bahrain Freight Products Manager, Ahmad Omran stated: “The LTL services will provide businesses in Bahrain the opportunity and option of utilizing land transportation to KSA at a lower rate while considering actual truck space needed for the products of each business.”

Rabab Khalaf from Export Bahrain’s Planning & Market Intelligence department added: “The service comes with many added benefits including below-market rates for land transportation to Saudi Arabia.

We encourage businesses from all the various sectors to take advantage and utilize this LTL service as we are confident that this would allow more exporters to enter the Saudi market with ease.”

Export Bahrain has facilitated local businesses to go global and expand into international markets reporting over USD 175 million worth of exports to date with more than 59 different product and service categories across various economic sectors.
