Saudia Cargo launches joint venture with TAM Group

Saudia Cargo has established Saudia Cargo Global as a joint venture with long-time strategic partner TAM Group to extend its reach across Asia Pacific.

The Hong Kong-based entity is designed to serve as Saudia Cargo’s command centre for Greater China and the APAC region, extending the airline’s commercial reach, service capabilities and customer engagement.

Taking advantage of Hong Kong’s position as the world's busiest cargo airport, Saudia Cargo Global will link businesses within the region and beyond with Saudi Arabia and global markets.

The initiative will support Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 and mark a new era for Saudia Cargo by expanding its global network and underscoring its role as a national enabler of trade and innovation.

Eng. Loay Mashabi, CEO and Managing Director of Saudia Cargo said: “Our partnership with TAM Group is a strategic evolution reflecting our long-term dedication to the region and our sustainable global growth. Leveraging TAM Group's expertise and our robust network, Saudia Cargo Global will unlock new opportunities, enhance customer agility, and significantly strengthen regional and international trade through five dedicated freighter hubs.”

Dr Tam Wing Kum, Founder and Chairman of TAM Group added: “Since 1986, TAM Group has worked hand-in-hand with Saudia Cargo, and this joint venture is a natural next step in our shared commitment to the region’s growth. The Greater China market, with Hong Kong at its heart, is a vibrant, rapidly evolving landscape, and we're confident Saudia Cargo Global will become a dominant force in its air cargo industry.”

Saudia Cargo Global will introduce enhanced services tailored specific to the Greater China market needs with plans to expand further across APAC.

This includes optimised freighter operations leveraging Hong Kong’s strategic location, advanced e-commerce logistics solutions and specialised pharmaceutical transport.

Saudia Cargo will provide integrated logistics solutions and TAM Group will bring deep market knowledge, strong relationships and proven operational excellence to ensure seamless local execution under a unified strategic vision.
