Saudia Cargo revs up for Formula-E

Saudia Cargo has for the second year in a row transported the World Championship Formula-E cars, that took place at the historical Diriyah, carrying 67 cars in four shipments totalling 375 tonnes. Formula-E cars departed from Milano, Italy and Doncaster, United Kingdom, to King Khalid International Airport, Riyadh.

 

Abdulrahman Al-Mubarak, Saudia Cargo’s chief commercial officer, stated that “all Formula-E cars have successfully been transported, Saudia Cargo team exercised extreme care in the ground-handling operations, and co-ordinated the entire process with the organisers of the Championship.

 

“Saudia Cargo is a major supporter of all global events taking place across the Kingdom and always mobilises its logistics capabilities to ensure the success of these events. We have transported all types of equipment and spare parts for major events around the country related to sports, entertainment, cultural and social,” Al-Mubarak stressed.
