they become costly problems. When vehicles do inevitably fail, we

attend to them quickly and effectively wherever they are and whatever

time of the day or night. ( Why not ask our Contracts Manager for a

quotation? )

TASECO-TMS Limited was established in 1982 as a 70%-30% joint

venture between TASECO Transport Company Ltd., of Al Khobar

and United Transport International Plc of London with a capital of

Sr. 10 million, as a trucking company to primarily cater to theneeds

of Saudi Aramco. Thereafter the company has expanded successfully

into all regions of the Kingdom, and set up depots in Jeddah, Riyadh,

Jubail, Dhahran and Yanbu. In 1992, the partnership with United

Transport was dissolved and the Company is now 100% Saudi owned.

In 1993, the Company opened its first operation outside the Kingdom

in Jebel Ali Free Zone, Dubai. The operation centers around several

dedicated contract hire clients and offers general haulage within the

UAE.

As part of its strategy for the future, TASECO-TMS has concentrated on

providing specialist dedicated contract services to the manufacturing

sector. 100% dedicated vehicles, trailers and drivers in the clients

own livery, now operate for a growing number of major customers.
