The STL Global Forwarding Story
STL connects the Kingdom's trade with the world's ports, handling your shipment from booking to delivery.
STL Global Forwarding was founded in Jeddah in 2024 by a team that has worked for more than 9 years in ocean freight, customs clearance and logistics. We saw businesses dealing with several parties for a single shipment — a shipping line, a broker, a trucker and a warehouse — and paying for it in time and unexpected costs.
That is why we built STL as a single party accountable for the whole journey: from booking at the port of origin to clearance at Saudi ports and delivery to the client's door. We serve businesses in retail, industry, projects and food, working with a network of shipping lines and international agents across Asia, Europe, Africa and the Americas.
