    Shipa Freight Named “Logistics Technology Platform of the Year”

    DUBAI – Shipa Freight, the leading online freight platform, was named Logistics Technology Platform of the Year at the first-ever Transport and Logistics Middle East Awards in Dubai.

It shows the impact we’ve already made with our technology and the value we are bringing to our customers, particularly to SMEs competing with bigger rivals and trying to grow through cross-border trade.”

    The award was presented on November 12 at the Roda Al Bustan Hotel in Dubai. The ceremony brought together the most prominent players from the Middle East logistics and supply chain sector. The awards honored companies implementing state-of-the-art operations and processes that are changing the logistics sector in the region.
