   In 1963 H.R.H. Prince Abdullah Al Faisal Al Saud acquired the shipping & trading business of Gellatley Hankey, a long established agency in Jeddah, and formed the Arabian Establishment for Trade & Shipping Limited. AET Shipping is now owned by H.R.H. Prince Saud Abdullah Al Faisal Al Saud and his sons and daughters.

With a commitment to high standards the newly-formed company rapidly expanded and in the process diversified into other related businesses. Nowadays the company is not only a major shipping agency, with the added prestige of being the Lloyds Agents for Saudi Arabia, but also operates a very successful clearing and forwarding division. In Jeddah AET also owns a modern container repair and storage depot.

The spectacular growth of Saudi Arabian commerce and the rapid modernization of the ports created excellent opportunities for AET. As a result AET ranks as one of the largest and most substantial shipping agency networks in Saudi Arabia with offices in all the country’s major commercial and industrial ports. Representation of some of the most high profile international liner operators and ship owners forms the mainstay of AET’s shipping activities kingdomwide. This is complemented by an extremely efficient and diverse ships services division, which handles tanker operation's at all of the terminals in the Kingdom. As a part of the SIGMA (Saudi Investment Group & Marketing) Group the Shipping Division also has access to a wide – range of related services from the associate companies within SIGMA. Travel, air-cargo, LCL, storage and cargo consolidation and re-distribution are some of the services available.

AET’s management considers it an essential priority to identify closely with the commercial objectives of its principals and works hand in hand with individual ship owners and operators to achieve this aim. A major portion of AET’s liner cargo portfolio is container-oriented and our internal organization has been specially designed to provide full back up and information service for all the clients we serve.
