NXN collaborates with Amazon to enhance last-mile delivery efficiency in the UAE
NXN, 7X’s National Network for logistics, has partnered with Amazon UAE to transform delivery processes and last-mile services across the emirates. The announcement was made during the recently concluded 28th Universal Postal Congress – Dubai 2025.
The collaboration enables Amazon UAE to leverage NXN’s expansive logistics infrastructure, including dark stores and specialised fulfilment centres located within residential areas. This setup allows high-demand products to be stocked closer to customers, reducing delivery times while also cutting traffic congestion and emissions associated with long-distance transport.
Expanded pick-up options for customers
As part of the initiative, Amazon is expanding its use of NXN’s pick-up point network, giving customers the flexibility to collect their packages at secure locations on their own schedules. Customers can browse nearby pick-up point locations directly on the website.
Strategic partnership for the digital economy and sustainability
Abdulaziz Alhammadi, General Manager of NXN, said:
“Our partnership with Amazon UAE highlights NXN’s role as a trusted smart infrastructure provider, integrating storage, fulfilment, and distribution. Dark stores and fulfilment centres not only accelerate delivery but also lower environmental impact and operational costs. This aligns with the UAE’s digital economy, transport, and sustainability goals. Our vision is to ensure that this infrastructure serves both global enterprises like Amazon and local SMEs, driving eCommerce growth and reinforcing the UAE as a hub for advanced logistics.”
Ronaldo Mouchawar, Vice President of Amazon Middle East, Africa, and Turkey, added:
“Leveraging the NXN network is a testament to our commitment to efficiency and customer satisfaction. By embedding fulfilment hubs and pick-up points across UAE neighbourhoods, we are reimagining the delivery experience. Together with NXN, we are delivering convenience and reliability while contributing to sustainability and smart urban planning.”
Strengthening the UAE’s logistics ecosystem
NXN’s network, consisting of 87 branches, 1,000 out-of-home delivery points, and smart lockers across the UAE, is central to creating an integrated national system for sending, receiving, storage, and fulfilment.
This collaboration with Amazon UAE lays the groundwork for future partnerships aimed at advancing delivery models, boosting eCommerce capabilities, and further strengthening the UAE’s supply chain efficiency.
