Abu Dhabi Ports Company (ADPC ) has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with MICCO, a freight contracting and logistics company in the UAE.
Under the new deal, MICCO will provide road freight services for container cargo for pick-up from and delivery to Khalifa Port to and from any location in the city of Abu Dhabi.
Valid for a year, the deal will guarantee stability in the rate structure, and encourage more trade to improve the import and export volumes at Khalifa Port.
Commenting on the deal, ADPC CEO Mohamed Juma Al Shamisi said the MoU marks a further step in the development process of the company's vastly growing logistics network around Khalifa Port.
"MICCO has over 30 years of industry experience and is a perfect partner to cater to our steadily increasing road freight transportation needs around the port, including its adjacent Khalifa Industrial Zone, and wider Abu Dhabi region," Shamisi added.
