Centrally located between the three major ports of UAE, Port Rashid, Jebel Ali and Sharjah Port, this new warehousing facility for sea-freight services, covers around 6.500sqm and is fully equipped with the latest material handling equipment along with 24/7 on site security and CCTV to ensure the customers' cargo is secure at all times.
Peter Scholten, CEO, FLS Group said, "We started the sea freight consolidation services for our air cargo clients in 2012 on 12.500 sqm facilities in Rashidiya, Dubai. We have experienced a magnificent growth in this market segment and after 2 years we have reached the maximum capacity in our existing facilities."
"We are very pleased to announce the expansion in the Aladdin Container Terminal. This is the only customs bonded area outside of a port within the UAE. This means that all the export customs formalities can be completed within the terminal which will save time and money for our customers, both of which are extremely important in today's competitive environment".
"Moving forward, the new facility will ensure that we have the much needed capacity to expand our business across new sectors in Africa and help us reach our aggressive growth plans", concluded Peter Scholten, CEO, FLS-Group.
