3PL, 4PL and Contract Logistics in the UAE
One partner running warehousing, transport, customs and providers under one contract — or managing your whole supply chain on your behalf.
Overview
As a business grows, managing several warehouses, carriers and agents becomes a job in itself. As a 3PL we run those services for you; as a 4PL we manage the whole chain, including other providers, with one set of service levels and one point of accountability.

Questions we are often asked
What is the difference between 3PL and 4PL?
A 3PL provides logistics services. A 4PL manages the whole supply chain, including other 3PLs and carriers, on your behalf.
Why use a 4PL?
To stop managing several providers yourself, to get one view of cost and service, and to have one party accountable for the result.
How long is a typical contract?
Terms are agreed per client. Many start with a trial period before a longer agreement.
Do you deliver outside Dubai?
Yes, across the UAE, with timings confirmed per area.
Do we have to use your services afterwards?
No. The review stands on its own.
Should we hold stock in a free zone or on the mainland?
It depends on where your customers are, duties and re-export flows. We compare both for your case.
