Aramex, the global logistics and transportation solutions provider, has announced the launch of its Value Express service for express shipments within the Middle East, North Africa and South Asia regions.

Aramex Value Express is part of the company's continued commitment to enrich its value proposition to customers and aims to offers customers the option to transport less urgent parcels at economical rates.

This solution, which was developed to support the region’s commercial sector in achieving greater cost efficiencies in the current economic climate, includes time-definite delivery, door-to-door transport, customs clearance and track-and-trace online tools, said a company official.

'We believe there is a growing demand for a service that effectively integrates the benefits of our current express and premium freight services at competitive pricing,' explained Osama Fattaleh, chief operating officer.

'The Value Express service meets that need without any compromise on service quality, while further expanding the range of express and delivery options offered by Aramex to its customers in the Middle East, North Africa and South Asia regions,' he added.

According to Fattaleh, the new service will benefit, among others, Small and Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs) looking for reliable and cost-efficient solutions.

In the GCC alone, SMEs represent over 75 per cent of the aggregate number of operating companies, he added.-TradeArabia News Service
