The 1000 miles journey started in 1945 when Abdul-Salam Bou-Azza El-Gezairi took the first step and opened a small customs clearing office in his hometown of Beirut, Lebanon.
Over the years Gezairi Transport continued to expand and widen its scope of activities through hard work, diligence and dedication to its customers. The company's commitment to excellence forged a link around the world that made Gezairi become one of the leading international freight forwarding and shipping companies in the Middle East.
