Sharjah Logistics & Freight Services
UAE's Manufacturing Capital — Air, Ocean & Road Freight
Emirates Freight provides air, ocean, and road freight services across Sharjah — the UAE’s leading manufacturing and trading emirate. Access Sharjah’s airports, ports, and free zones through one logistics partner.
Sharjah — The UAE's Manufacturing Hub
Sharjah is the UAE’s third-largest emirate and its manufacturing heartland — accounting for over 45% of UAE industrial output. With a border that touches both the Arabian Gulf (west coast) and the Gulf of Oman (east coast), Sharjah is one of only three emirates with coastlines on two seas, giving it unique connectivity advantages.
Sharjah International Airport (SHJ) is the UAE’s third-busiest cargo airport and home to Air Arabia, serving budget cargo routes across the Middle East, Asia, and Europe. The Khalid Port provides ocean freight access, while the east coast Khor Fakkan Port offers East of Suez connectivity without transiting the Strait of Hormuz.
