Etihad Cargo expands overland feeder services in UAE and wider GCC, connecting air and sea gateways

Etihad Cargo, the cargo and logistics arm of the Etihad Aviation Group, has once again selected MICCO, a leader in freight management and an integrated supply chain solutions provider, as its road feeder services (RFS) provider in a multi-year agreement.

The RFS network connects major air and sea gateways in the Emirates of Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah, as well as key GCC countries including Oman, Kuwait and Bahrain.

Under the renewed partnership, MICCO will continue to provide Etihad Cargo with customs-sealed and bonded container vehicles, as well as refrigerated and non-refrigerated reefer trucks to support Etihad’s FreshForward perishable products through door services across the UAE.

Andre Blech, Head of Operations & Service Delivery at Etihad Cargo said: “It is a pleasure to once more extend this partnership with MICCO. It is a testament to the exceptional service quality and operational flexibility that we grew accustomed to from them over the years and perfectly complements our air cargo offering from our hub in Abu Dhabi.”

MICCO, a leading integrated logistics player headquartered in Abu Dhabi, is focused on freight management, travel services, and specialised supply chain activities, particularly within fast moving consumer goods (FMCG). Under the new agreement with Etihad, its vehicles will be branded with Etihad Cargo’s new “Choose Well” proposition.
