EMX’s ‘Dark Store’ is a distribution facility that caters exclusively to online shopping. Retailers can utilise the Dark Store
as a fulfilment centre to speed up the delivery of online orders or offer their customers the option to ‘click-and-collect’
the products they have ordered online. As part of its commitment to accelerating last-mile innovation, EMX is enabling
eCommerce companies to meet growing consumer expectations, operate with greater agility, and optimise their supply
chains by leveraging its vast logistics infrastructure and in-depth market knowledge.

Laith Tahboub, General Manager of EMX, commented, “Innovation involves more than just speed – it is further defined
by efficiency, adaptability, and sustainability. With the launch of our Dark Store network, we are expanding on this
notion and providing our partners with the tools necessary to scale seamlessly, fulfil faster, and deliver smarter.”

“The initiative aligns with EMX’s broader strategic goal of reshape logistics in ways that enhance customer satisfaction
and deliver greater operational value for our clients. Some of our Dark Stores are already operational in collaboration
with prominent e-Commerce players, and we are actively working to expand the network to at least 36 locations across
the UAE by the end of 2025, a significant step in our journey toward a smarter, more connected last-mile
ecosystem,” Tahboub added.

The latest offering comes as EMX’s response to the growing demand for convenience and real-time service in the
eCommerce space, as well as a testimony to its commitment to delivering future-ready, technology-driven logistical
solutions. With innovations that keep commerce connected, flexible, and one step ahead of the curve, EMX remains a
pioneering leader and trusted partner to companies throughout the region.
