Al Khaldi and Bertling Logistics have joined forces in Saudi Arabia to form their new joint venture company Al Khaldi-Bertling Logistics Ltd.
The company will commence business on 01 February 2021 and will be headquartered in the newly-constructed Al Khaldi business tower in Al Khobar, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA).
The new Al Khobar office will be headed by the recently appointed Operations Director, Adel El Said, who has 20 years of experience in the logistics market in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
The main purpose of Al Khaldi-Bertling Logistics Ltd. will be to jointly explore new and existing business opportunities in KSA in both the oil & gas, the broader developing energy industries and non-oil sector.
Both JV partners have been in the industry for many years and have a long history of working in KSA. While Bertling’s focus is on global project logistics and transport engineering solutions, Al Khaldi primarily specialises in local logistics/trucking services and transport vehicle supply.
“We are delighted and proud to have in Bertling a loyal partner to add value and broaden our local service offering in KSA and to diversify our portfolio”, says Megren Al Khaldi, Vice President of Al Khaldi Logistics Company.
“Saudi Arabia has always been an important market for Bertling and our global team is passionate about all the new business opportunities arising in the country”, comments Colin MacIsaac. “We are convinced that our new JV will obtain a leading position in the Saudi logistics market and that we will be ideally positioned to adequately respond to and serve the many business opportunities we have identified resulting from the increasing investments and on-going reforms in KSA”, MacIsaac concludes.
