This strategic initiative aligns seamlessly with the National Industrial Development and Logistics Programme (NIDLP) and Saudi Vision 2030.”

In this context, it continues to digitise its postal and logistics services, through the latest applications of artificial intelligence, where the agreement targets the deployment of 200 robots to facilitate sorting and processing operations, which in turn contribute to supporting the supply chain system and enabling the growth of the logistics sector in the kingdom, in line with Saudi Vision 2030.”
Abdulaziz bin Abdul Karim Alkhereiji, Chairman of Alkhereiji Group, said: “Alkhereiji Trading and Electronics Company has always strived to keep up with technology and employ it in a way that suits the aspirations of our customers.
