SAL’s CEO, Omar Hariri commented, “This cooperation with Emirates SkyCargo as a logistic partner will have a positive effect on the flow of cargo operations at all our main stations in the Kingdom.

We look forward, through the extension of this ground handling agreement, to continue our partnership and offer rich and value-adding logistic services to our clientele in this market. We are confident that our operations will run smoothly and seamlessly due to SAL’s unique handling capabilities, which will bolster trade and cargo operations between the two countries,” Nabil Sultan, divisional senior vice president at Emirates SkyCargo said.
