Turkish logistics company Hareket signed a memorandum of understanding with Etihad Rail, the national railway operator of the United Arab Emirates, to develop integrated rail logistics solutions and support large-scale industrial transport projects across the Middle East.
According to a public disclosure from the company on Monday, the partnership focuses on integrating Hareket’s heavy lifting and project transport expertise with rail-based logistics infrastructure.
The two companies plan to develop specialized transport solutions designed to move oversized and heavy industrial cargo using railway systems.
The collaboration is expected to strengthen railway-based logistics networks in the region while enabling more efficient transport of industrial equipment and project cargo.
Rail systems are widely used for transporting heavy and oversized loads due to their capacity and efficiency compared to road transport.
Hareket is a Türkiye-based engineering logistics contractor founded in Istanbul in 1957, specializing in heavy lifting, oversized cargo transport, crane operations, and engineered logistics solutions for large industrial and energy projects.
Headquartered in Istanbul, the company operates internationally across Eurasia, the Middle East, Africa, and the Caspian region.
The agreement builds on its regional track record, including civil infrastructure logistics support for the Ramhan Island Bridge project in Abu Dhabi, as well as its expanded operational presence through branch offices in Dubai and Oman as part of its international growth strategy.
The company’s shares are publicly traded on Borsa Istanbul, and its revenues reached ₺3.52 billion ($107.16 million) in 2024.
Etihad Rail is the developer and operator of the UAE’s national railway network, spanning about 900 kilometers across all seven emirates and designed to carry up to 60 million tonnes of cargo annually by 2030.
