Leveraging DB Schenker’s extensive freight forwarding capacity it will boost Aramex’s capabilities and offerings in the region in sectors such as aerospace, defense, infrastructure, and healthcare. DB Schenker will be able to expand its presence in Abu Dhabi, a strategic and growing trade and logistics hub in the MEA region.mAramex’s freight forwarding business was largely focused on the cyclical oil and gas sector.
