Logistics

In the logistics sector, time is money—and visibility is everything. From cross-country freight movements to last-mile delivery, managing your fleet without real-time tracking is like flying blind. At Zard, we provide advanced GPS tracking solutions specifically designed for logistics and transportation providers in Saudi Arabia.

With our CST-licensed platform, logistics companies gain full control over their fleet’s location, delivery schedules, driver performance, and route efficiency—all through a single, cloud-based system. Whether you're running a 10-vehicle courier fleet or a national freight network, Zard helps you deliver with precision, reliability, and peace of mind.
