SHARJAH, July 16, 2023

Herald Holdings (FZE), a global conglomerate of logistics and shipping companies, has secured a lease of land spanning 173,000 square feet in Sharjah Airport International Free Zone (Saif Zone)
 
This strategic move will enable the company to construct a state-of-the-art logistics facility tailored to cater to multiple sectors, including hospitality, consumer goods, construction, oil and gas, and heavy projects. The facility will offer comprehensive warehousing services and seamless transportation of cargo by air, land, and sea.
 
With the latest investment, Herald Holdings' total investment in the free zone will increase to AED30 million ($8.17 million). The company's operational footprint in Saif Zone is set to expand to a sprawling 227,000 square feet, considering the additional 54,000 square-foot warehouse it rented in 2022.
 
Key milestone
The agreement, inked by Saud Salim Al Mazrouei, Director of Saif Zone, and Krishna Kaladharan, Managing Director of Herald Holdings, marks a significant milestone in the company's growth strategy.
 
Herald Holdings’ new expansion plan will be further reinforced by the free zone’s advantageous location and access to high-growth markets in the Middle East, Africa, and Asia. By leveraging SaifZ's cutting-edge facilities and business solutions, the company aims to strengthen its position as a major hub for trade, industry, and logistics.
 
With an impressive legacy spanning over 28 years and a distinguished position in the sector, Herald Holdings stands as a strategic partner to a prominent Logistics Group and has showcased remarkable proficiency and leadership in logistics, emerging as the fastest-growing Non-Vessel Owning Common Carrier (NVOCC), Global Freight Forwarding, Project Logistics, and E-commerce services provider across the Middle East and Indian Subcontinent.
 
Global hub for trade

Particularly, given the strategic location of Sharjah, we have become a significant global hub for trade and logistics and an essential destination for companies, thanks to our developed ports, airports, and infrastructure supporting supply chains," Al Mazrouei noted. 
 
He added: "At Saif Zone, we have committed ourselves to boosting the resilience of the transport and logistics sector through innovative solutions and amenities that support investors' aspirations and help them achieve growth and success they look forward to in competitive markets.”
