India-based Unicommerce and Saudi Arabia–based Naqel signed a strategic partnership. Within the scope of the partnership, Unicommerce’s e-commerce enablement platform will be integrated with Naqel’s nationwide delivery network. Thus, it is aimed to make order fulfillment, last-mile delivery, and cross-border shipping processes more efficient.
In Saudi Arabia, the digital ecosystem and cross-border e-commerce are gradually growing. The country is also positioning itself as an important growth market for regional and international e-commerce together with investments in logistics infrastructure. The Unicommerce–Naqel partnership is seen as a strategic step in such a period.
Integrated Logistics Through a Unified Platform
Within the scope of the partnership, e-commerce brands using the Unicommerce platform will be able to integrate directly with Naqel Express’s logistics network. Through this integration, businesses will have the opportunity to manage order management, warehousing, last-mile delivery, and cross-border shipping processes through Unicommerce’s unified control panel.
According to the companies, this structure will make fulfillment processes more streamlined by reducing operational complexity and increasing visibility across the supply chain. Brands will be able to access regional delivery networks covering the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Oman, Kuwait, Qatar, Jordan, and Lebanon, in addition to delivery capacity within Saudi Arabia.
Companies Will Benefit From Saudi Arabia’s Logistics Infrastructure
Naqel Express operates under Saudi Post Logistics (SPL), which is the national postal operator of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Naqel, one of the country’s largest logistics and express delivery companies, has an extensive national network for high-volume shipments and time-sensitive deliveries.
Thanks to the partnership with Unicommerce, Naqel integrated its logistics services into the technology layer of e-commerce operations, enabling sellers to establish a direct connection with their order management processes.
Naqel Express UAE Country Manager Maxim Vyalyy stated that the partnership brought together the strengths of both companies. Vyalyy said, “By combining Unicommerce’s technology with Naqel’s logistics expertise, we aimed to provide consumers with a better shopping experience both in Saudi Arabia and in international markets.”
Uniceommerce Offers Localized Capabilities for GCC Markets
Unicommerce provides services to customers across Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates while offering localized integrations specific to GCC markets. These capabilities include features such as Arabic-language invoicing and shipping label creation, as well as integrations with regional logistics and ecosystem partners.
By positioning its platform as a central operating system for e-commerce brands, the company enables inventory, order, and shipping processes to be managed from a single point across different sales channels and countries. The partnership with Naqel expanded logistics options, especially for brands targeting Saudi Arabia as a priority market or expansion point.
Unicommerce Managing Director and CEO Kapil Makhija evaluated the partnership as an important step in the company’s regional growth strategy. Makhija stated that this partnership strengthened Unicommerce’s role as a provider of technology and logistics infrastructure for e-commerce brands across the Middle East.
