Riyadh – Sharikat Mubasher: ASMO, the joint venture between Saudi Aramco Development Company and DHL, announced the official launch of its procurement services for general supply materials, issuing its first purchase orders for Aramco in July 2025.
The company also commenced operations at its second Saudi facility, a warehouse located in the Jazan Refinery Complex, as per a newly published press release.
These milestones mark a significant step in ASMO’s national rollout, part of a 15-year strategic agreement with Aramco aimed at localizing supply chains and strengthening Saudi Arabia’s logistics infrastructure, in line with Vision 2030.
ASMO is rolling out its services in phases through 2027, starting with general supply and expanding to other key categories like MRO, drilling materials, and project-based procurement. The newly activated Jazan warehouse will support Aramco’s downstream and distribution operations, boosting supply chain efficiency and resilience.
Craig Roberts, ASMO’s CEO, emphasized the foundational nature of these steps, while Sulaiman Al Rubaian, Aramco’s SVP of Procurement & Supply Chain, noted the move is setting the stage for a more responsive and integrated supply chain.
Since its 2024 launch, ASMO has signed 26 strategic MoUs and is preparing future sites in SPARK, Jubail, and Yanbu. By 2030, it aims to manage over 8 million sqm of warehousing and $8 billion in procurement, supporting broader industrial and economic goals across the Kingdom.
