7X, the UAE-based holding group specializing in trade, transport, and logistics, and parent company of
key entities including EMX and Emirates Post, has announced a strategic partnership with Amazon UAE.

The collaboration is set to transform last-mile delivery using 7X’s logistics arm, EMX, and its network of
Dark Stores.

As part of the agreement, Amazon will leverage EMX’s strategically located Dark Stores as hyperlocal
fulfilment hubs, enabling faster delivery of high-demand products to customers across the UAE.

These fulfilment hubs, embedded within residential and commercial neighborhoods, will allow Amazon to
position select inventory closer to customers, boosting delivery speeds while supporting broader goals
around sustainability and urban planning.
