As Kuwait advances its Vision 2035 to emerge as a regional logistics and financial hub, the Al Kazemi Group is strategically positioned to play an active role in this transformation. Backed by over 70 years of industry experience, the Group is well-placed to leverage Kuwait’s strategic location and major infrastructure developments—such as Mubarak Al Kabeer Port and the Gulf Railway—to reinforce its leadership in the shipping and logistics sector.
Founded in 1953, Al Kazemi Group has evolved from a traditional shipping agency into a comprehensive logistics solutions provider. Its services span Global Freight Forwarding, Project Logistics, Airline Representation, and Cross-Border Transportation. The Group’s partnerships with international leaders such as K Line, Wan Hai Lines, UPS, RCL PSA-BDP and Vanguard Logistics reflect its strong global integration and operational capabilities.
Under the leadership of Mr. Shajy George, General Manager of the Shipping and Logistics Division—with over 35 years of industry expertise—the Group has expanded its product portfolio, enhanced operational efficiency, embraced digital transformation, and fostered long-standing client relationships across complex logistics projects.
Al Kazemi has firmly established its credentials in project logistics, particularly within Kuwait’s oil, gas, and infrastructure sectors. It has successfully executed logistics for landmark projects, including the $1.3 billion Subiya Combined Cycle Gas Turbine Project and the $4.9 billion Clean Fuels Project at Mina Al Ahmadi, managing hundreds of cubic meters of over-dimensional and heavy-lift cargo.
To mitigate the risks associated with Kuwait’s oil-dependent economy, the Group has adopted a diversified business model and places a strong emphasis on enhancing the customer experience. Al Kazemi is ISO and HSE certified, adheres to IMO and IATA standards, and remains fully compliant with regulatory requirements. Its technology-driven approach—such as real-time tracking and automated systems—enables efficient and transparent operations.
Looking ahead, the Group plans to expand its presence within strategic logistics zones and establish operations at the upcoming Mubarak Al Kabeer Port. These initiatives align with Kuwait’s economic diversification agenda and position Al Kazemi Group as a key player in the nation’s logistics transformation.
