Aramex is a leading global logistics and transportation solutions provider. Founded in 1982 as an express operator, the company rapidly evolved into a global brand recognised for its customised services and innovative multi-product offering. In an exciting move, Aramex acquired Berco Express in December 2011, bringing improved technology, best logistics practices and a committed global team to the company. A publicly traded company on the Dubai Financial Market (DFM: ARMX), Aramex employs more than 13 900 talented and dedicated individuals in over 360 locations, across 60 countries worldwide, leading a strong alliance network by bringing together 40 independent express companies from around the world.

Store-to-Door Courier services are available at Pick n Pay and FreshStop stores. The business comprises of 16 branches and 3 warehouses nationwide, and employs more than 900 people.
More recently, Aramex has acquired PostNet Southern Africa, further extending Aramex’s service proposition to many more locations across the country, with customers now being able to pick up and drop off packages from across 300 locations. The future at Aramex looks equally exciting. From a corporate point of view, there are finite plans to expand across Southern Africa with the opening of additional warehouses and offices.
