As part of building e-commerce capabilities, Oman Post ASYAD Express, a member of ASYAD Group, has signed a Service Level Agreement (SLA) with SOHAR Port and Freezone, the up-and-coming gateway to the GCC region, to open the company’s first service center for postal and e-commerce services. The launch of the new center came in line with Oman Post ASYAD Express’ strategy to offer a comprehensive logistics network locally and regionally.

The SLA was signed by Nasser Al Sharji, Acting Chief Executive Officer of Oman Post ASYAD Express and Omar Al Mahrizi, CEO of SOHAR Freezone – DCEO of SOHAR Port.

“The new Oman Post ASYAD Express service center in SOHAR Port and Freezone is a key facility on our list of investor-friendly services.

Addresses across the development to ensure we continue to provide unique services and outstanding amenities to our growing base of businesses,” said Omar Mahmood Al Mahrizi CEO of SOHAR Freezone – DCEO of SOHAR Port.

The SLA will allow Oman Post ASYAD Express access to SOHAR Port and Freezone’s database of investors in order to promote its services and businesses. Once the service center is open, Oman Post ASYAD express will carry out fast track procedures to enable

businesses in the development to benefit from postal and logistics services including; P.O Boxes, domestic and international document and parcel delivery, e-commerce and fulfilment services.

As one of the fastest-growing port and free zone developments anywhere in the world, the SOHAR Port and Freezone has an abundance of space that is readily available and filling up fast. The very first phase of the Freezone is almost fully leased out, three years ahead of schedule, and tenant companies are already reaping the benefits of unrivaled access to land, low-cost energy, and a skilled workforce. The Freezone is a 4,500 – hectare development that, together with the Port, has attracted global investments of over USD27 billion.
