EMove Global

What EMove Global does

E-Move Shipping and Clearance, operating as EMove Global, is a privately held freight forwarding and logistics company founded in 2005 and headquartered in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The company offers a five-service integrated suite spanning air freight, sea freight, road freight, customs clearance brokerage, and warehousing/storage solutions, marketed as a one-stop logistics offering for international shippers. Underlying customer-facing technology is limited to a web-based shipment tracking portal keyed by job number and an online quote-request intake form; the core technology stack is not disclosed and the business is operationally a traditional freight forwarder rather than a software/logistics-tech platform.

EMove Global serves a mix of B2B import/export businesses and individual shippers across the GCC (UAE and KSA), broader Middle East, and Asian markets. Operational footprint consists of the Dubai head office plus two Dubai warehouses (Jebel Ali Freezone, Al Aweer), three Riyadh locations (warehouse, Al Mursalat office, Olaya sales office), a Guangzhou warehouse in China, and an Istanbul office in Turkey, supplemented by a partner-agent network for global reach. The company reports having handled over USD 1 billion in cumulative shipment value since founding.

The revenue model is built on three streams: freight forwarding commissions/margins on air, sea, and road shipments; professional services fees for customs brokerage in UAE and KSA; and managed services revenue from rented warehouse capacity in KSA and UAE. GTM is sales-led, with pricing not publicly disclosed and all engagements initiated via quote request or direct office contact. The firm operates with 27 total employees across four countries, no disclosed external funding, no parent company, and no institutional investors referenced in available materials.
