Ocean Freight

Ocean freight is often the smartest choice for international shipments - cost-effective, flexible, and available to virtually every port in the world. Our team of 350 ocean freight specialists manage 50,000+ containers a year, so you're working with people who know the trade lanes, the carriers, and what it takes to keep cargo moving even when markets get volatile.

Get An OCEAN FREIGHT QUOTE
Any business importing or exporting goods internationally - from a small importer receiving a few pallets from China, to a large manufacturer shipping full containers to Europe, to an industrial company moving oversized equipment across continents.

Whether you have a full container ready to go or just a few pallets that need to share space with other shipments, we'll match you with the right option.

You tell us what you're shipping, where it's coming from, and where it needs to go. We handle the carrier booking, documentation, customs coordination, tracking, and final delivery - as much or as little as you need.

Full Container Load (FCL)

Your cargo fills the entire container. More secure, faster transit, and better value for larger volumes.
Available in a wide range of container sizes and types.

Less Than Container Load (LCL)

Only have a partial load? Share space in a container with other shippers and pay only for what you use.
Regular sailings from all major origins.

Roll-on/Roll-off (RoRo)

For vehicles, trucks, trailers, and anything on wheels. Your cargo drives onto the ship at origin and off at destination.

Break Bulk

For oversized or irregular cargo that doesn't fit inside a container. Machinery, steel structures, large equipment - we arrange the right vessel and the right stowage.

Dry Bulk

For commodities like grains, cement, fertilizers, and minerals shipped in large quantities directly into vessel holds.

Tanker / Liquid Bulk

For oils, chemicals, and liquid cargo that needs to travel in tanker vessels.

Gas Carrier

For LNG, LPG, and industrial gases in pressurized or cryogenic vessels.

Heavy Lift Vessel

For very large, very heavy project cargo that requires a purpose-built vessel.

Air Freight

Our road freight service handles overland shipments across Saudi Arabia's borders - into the GCC, the broader Middle East, and international overland routes. With FTL and LTL options, a live tracking system, and GPS visibility across 20+ countries, you always know where your cargo is and when it's arriving.

Get AN AIR FREIGHT QUOTE
Businesses with time-sensitive stock replenishment, pharmaceutical and healthcare companies, e-commerce brands managing urgent orders, manufacturers needing critical spare parts - anyone where a week's delay has real consequences.

We've also built specific expertise in healthcare, perishables, and time-critical supply chains - so if your cargo is sensitive, we understand what that means in practice.

Tell us what you need to move and when it needs to arrive. We'll recommend the right service level, handle the booking and documentation, coordinate airport handling on both ends, and keep you updated every step of the way.

Air Freight (General)

Standard cargo on commercial aircraft. Reliable schedules, good rates, global reach.

Express / Courier

For urgent, smaller shipments via express networks. Door-to-door speed.

Freighter (Charter)

When you need a dedicated aircraft - for large volumes, sensitive cargo, or tight deadlines.

Next Flight Out (NFO)

Emergency shipping on the very next available flight, regardless of airline or routing.

Consolidated (LCL Air)

Share cargo space with other shippers. You pay per kilogram, we handle the consolidation.

Deferred / Economy Air

Less urgent but still needs to fly? We'll find you the most cost-efficient option without compromising reliability.

Road Freight

When your cargo can't wait for a ship, air freight is the answer. Our air freight team handles everything from urgent same-day charters to cost-efficient consolidated economy shipments - covering all major global airports with over 100 specialists and 9,000 air trips managed every year.

Get A ROAD FREIGHT QUOTE
Importers and exporters with regular cross-border trade flows, businesses moving goods between Saudi Arabia and other GCC countries, manufacturers with raw material supply chains crossing borders.

You tell us the origin, destination, and cargo details. We handle the carrier, the paperwork, the border crossings, and the tracking - and keep you informed throughout.

Full Truck Load (FTL)

The whole truck for your cargo. Direct routing, faster transit, and better security for high-value or time-sensitive freight.

Less Than Truck Load (LTL)

Share a truck with other shippers. Great for smaller volumes where you only want to pay for the space you use.

Groupage / Consolidation

Multiple pickups and deliveries optimized into a single efficient route.

Dedicated Transport

A truck reserved exclusively for your cargo and your timeline.

Relay Trucking

For long-haul routes, we swap drivers at midpoints so your cargo keeps moving without unnecessary delays.

Convoy

For oversized, high-security, or high-value cargo that needs multiple trucks moving together.

Multimodal

Road legs combined with ocean or air freight into a single coordinated solution.

Rail Freight

Rail is one of Saudi Arabia's most exciting logistics developments, and GES is well-positioned to take advantage of it for our clients. From the SAR domestic corridor connecting Riyadh to Dammam, to Landbridge routes linking Saudi ports to China and Europe by rail, we'll help you find where rail creates cost and efficiency advantages for your business.

Get A RAIL FREIGHT QUOTE
Industrial and manufacturing companies moving large volumes domestically, businesses exploring cost-effective alternatives to ocean freight for Asia-Europe trade lanes, and companies shipping heavy bulk commodities along the SAR industrial corridor.

We assess your cargo, route, and timeline and identify whether rail - alone or as part of a multimodal journey - can save you money or speed up your transit. Then we handle the booking, the coordination, and the first and last mile road connections.

Full Container Load
(FCL Rail)

Full container loads on rail flatcars. Cost-effective for high volumes on domestic and cross-border routes.

Less Than Container Load
(LCL Rail)

Shared container space on rail. Pay per CBM for smaller volumes.

Block Train

An entire dedicated train for one shipper. Maximum efficiency for very large volumes.

Single Wagon

Individual wagon bookings for more modest rail shipments.

Intermodal / Landbridge

Your container moves by ocean to a rail hub, then by rail across land, then by ocean again. Connects Saudi Arabia to China and Europe at competitive rates.

Piggyback / RoRo Rail

Road trailers loaded directly onto rail flatcars, combining the flexibility of road with the economics of rail.

Terminal Services

Our terminals at Jeddah Islamic Port and King Abdul Aziz Port in Dammam are minutes from the berth - which means your cargo doesn't have to travel far to be stored, handled, inspected, or prepared for its next journey. Whether you need a container stuffed, stripped, repaired, or simply held for a few days, we have the space, the equipment, and the team on-site.
