        AlSaleh,  Vice  Secretary  General  –  Economic  Cites  at  Economic  Cities  and  Special

        Zones Authority (ECZA); and Mansour Al Salem, the Managing Director of Emaar, The

        Economic City, attended this ceremony.


        By adopting a phased approach, both parties will implement various innovative logistics

        solutions  in  multiple  phases,  with  phase  1  entailing  the  deployment  of  Aramex  Bot

        deliveries in selected areas, such as Baylasan and Marina Areas, which will allow the

        introduction  of  diverse  technologies.  This  will  contribute  to  enabling  maximum

        convenience,  enhancing  operational  speed  and  efficiency,  reducing  cost,  as  well  as

        driving sustainability.



        The      agreement        further     includes
        numerous  provisions,  all  of  which  are

        aimed  at  paving  the  way  for  green                 دﯾزﻣﻟا أرﻗا  Asian shares track Wall St’s

        and  enhanced  logistical  capabilities.

        The first multi-compartment robot used

        for    logistics     operations,      custom-

        designed  by Aramex  through  the  support  of  its  partner  Ottonomy,  allows  for  multiple
        deliveries per trip, thus optimizing overall operations and paving the way for cheaper

        delivery  costs.  Moreover,  robot  deliveries  follow  optimal  routes,  avoid  traffic  and

        manoeuvre  through  congested  urban  areas  with  minimal  disruption,  significantly

        improving delivery speed and efficiency. In addition, since Bots are electrically powered

        and emit zero emissions, their integration would substantially lower carbon footprints.
        Through the flexibility of scaling up and down the Bot fleet, it can additionally adapt to

        both peak and off-peak seasons. It also complies with traffic regulations with the use of

        advanced  sensors  and  algorithms  to  efficiently  identify  obstructions  and  prevent

        collisions.
