Enhance Affordability, Flexibility, and Convenience for UAE
Shoppers
DUBAI, UAE, Jan. 29,
2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Temu, the
direct-from-factory online marketplace, today announced a strategic
partnership with EMX, the logistics arm of 7X, to enhance
e-commerce fulfillment in the United Arab
Emirates (UAE) and across the Middle East.
Under the partnership, Temu and EMX are expanding the sea
shipping capability and introducing PUDO (Pick-Up and Drop-Off)
services to ensure a seamless online shopping experience for Temu's
growing customers in the region.
Sea Shipping Capability: By managing logistics based
on varying shipping needs, Temu can lower costs, ensuring customers
enjoy even more affordable pricing. Expanding sea shipping with EMX
also enables comprehensive logistics coverage across all Gulf
countries, improving accessibility and delivery options for
regional customers.
PUDO services: By integrating 7X's PUDO
services fulfilled by EMX, Temu provides customers with greater
delivery flexibility. With convenient pick-up and drop-off options,
customers can leave or retrieve their parcels at times and places
of their convenience. This feature also minimizes delivery
failures, offering peace of mind to consumers while reducing
associated costs, all contributing to more efficient and
sustainable logistics operations.
"Temu's mission is to make quality products affordable to
consumers of all walks of life. By partnering with reliable
fulfillment partners like EMX, we are able to continuously optimize
our logistics solutions, broaden product offerings and ensure a
convenient and seamless shopping experience for customers," a Temu
spokesperson said.
Since launching services in the UAE in September 2023, Temu has rapidly expanded its
footprint across the Middle East,
including Saudi Arabia,
Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman, and Jordan. Temu offers a diverse range of
products across over 200 categories, from household essentials to
electronics, catering to the unique needs of consumers in these
markets.
"We are excited to partner with Temu to bring our reliable and
high-quality delivery services to its online shoppers in the UAE
and beyond, driving a strategic transformation in the regional
logistics landscape. By leveraging our advanced sea shipping
capabilities and scalable PUDO
services, together with Temu, we aim to redefine
affordability and flexibility in delivery operations, setting a new
standard for convenience and customer satisfaction as well as
elevating the fast-growing e-commerce fulfillment for the GCC
region," said Tariq Al Wahedi, General Manager at
