Workers at the Warsan Fruit and Vegetable Market in Al Aweer have easy access to courier services because Empost has established a branch in the area.

Empost, the UAE's national courier company, has created a retail branch that provides courier and postal needs to the growing Al Aweer community.

Empost Gateway will serve the new fruit and vegetable market, the used car showrooms, Al Aweer industrial area, Ras Al Khor, the new International City and commuters on the way to Jebel Ali via Emirates Road.

The new store will offer domestic and international courier services and express deliveries.

"This new location will give us the opportunity to reach a new level of business interest. We are very excited about the new store's future prospects," said Eisa Al Daboos, Empost's general manager.

Empost will also install Ezibox, Ezimail and Ezipack services at the new Al Aweer retail store. Also available are various specialised services connected to the customised courier industry, such as Jawaz and Health Pack services, Direct Mail Marketing and the Mandoub services.

Al Daboos said the new branch at Al Aweer will also provide services related to the Saudi consular services. Empost has been authorised to process all motor traffic to and from Saudi Arabia, dispensing of drivers and monitoring their in-bound, out-bound vehicles.

"We have always been dedicated to high quality service and this new location is an advantage. We expect that the Empost store at the new Al Aweer fruit and vegetable market will provide us with access to the entire Al Aweer and Ras Al Khor areas," Al Daboos said.

"Our client can step into the store and receive the same exceptional service he expects from other locations. The only difference is that the location makes the process all the more accessible."
