08 Sep 2025 CW Team

7X, the trade, transport and logistics holding group, has launched its National Network for Logistics (NXN), coinciding with the 28th Universal Postal Congress in Dubai. NXN brings together local and international logistics providers under one unified network, offering a seamless experience for sending, receiving, storing parcels and fulfilling shipments.

The network features over 87 branches, 1,000+ out-of-home pick-up and drop-off locations, and smart lockers across the UAE. It also integrates dark-store solutions and e-commerce fulfilment, supporting SMEs and online retailers. Powered by Waslah’s digital logistics platform and integrated with the UAE’s digital P.O. Box WAYN, NXN ensures trusted, secure, and convenient delivery options.

H.E. Badr Al-Olama, Chairman of 7X, joined the launch alongside Tariq Al Wahedi, Group CEO of 7X, and Abdulaziz Alhammadi, General Manager of NXN. Commenting on the initiative, Al Wahedi said: “NXN transforms logistics from a fragmented and costly system to a unified national platform. It reinforces the UAE’s position as a global hub by offering accessible, reliable, and affordable services.”

Backed by collaborations with DHL, Aramex, FedEx, and other partners, NXN operates on four interconnected pillars—Send, Receive, Store, and Enable. This structure ensures efficient shipping, flexible delivery, smart storage, and SME empowerment.

Alhammadi added: “NXN is more than a logistics network; it empowers individuals and businesses to access global trade opportunities from the UAE. By integrating Waslah and WAYN, we are delivering the UAE’s vision of digital transformation and zero bureaucracy into reality.”

With this launch, 7X establishes a benchmark for logistics in the region, advancing sustainable, simplified, and innovation-led solutions in line with ‘We the UAE 2031’ and the ‘Zero Bureaucracy’ initiative.
