Services · Mobile app development · Logistics apps
Codeeo provides logistics app development Saudi Arabia carriers, forwarders and large shippers use to run freight between regions. We build transport management apps, carrier and shipper portals, driver apps and fleet systems that connect the Red Sea and Gulf ports, the rail corridors and the highway network, and that fit national requirements for transport documents, e-invoicing, data protection and identity.
Moving freight across the Kingdom means distances measured in days, several regulators, and partners in every region. A national platform gives head office one consistent picture of every load, while each branch keeps the local detail it needs. That balance between national control and regional flexibility is what most of our planning time goes into.

What the platform can include
Saudi freight runs on a few long corridors: Jeddah to Riyadh across the centre, Dammam to Riyadh by road and rail, routes north towards Jordan and south towards Jizan, and coastal lanes on both seas. National operators must issue electronic transport documents for road shipments, invoice in line with ZATCA, protect personal data under the PDPL and often meet cybersecurity expectations from government and large corporate customers. They also manage branches that work in different ways. A national logistics platform has to respect all of this without becoming impossible to use for a driver in Tabuk or a planner in Al Ahsa. The capabilities below are the building blocks we combine for national clients. The first phase normally covers the corridors that carry most of your volume.
One system holds orders, loads, trips and assets for every branch, with regional teams seeing their own work and head office seeing the whole network. Shared master data for customers, lanes and vehicles stops each region from keeping its own conflicting records. Transfers of trucks and drivers between regions for seasonal peaks are recorded too, so costs land in the right branch.
One version of the truth across every region.
Road shipments in the Kingdom need electronic transport documents issued through Transport General Authority platforms. The app stores each document reference on its trip, checks that one exists before departure where required, and keeps the record available for inspections and customer queries.
No truck leaves without its required document reference.
Licensed partner carriers and owner operators register, upload their documents and receive offered loads by lane and vehicle type. Acceptance, assignment and status updates happen in the same app your own drivers use, with ratings based on actual performance. Expired partner documents automatically pause new offers until they are renewed.
Capacity in any region without losing control of service.
Where your use case and approvals allow it, partner carriers, drivers and business users can verify their identity through Nafath, the national single sign on, instead of separate passwords. Identity checks for onboarding become faster and easier to evidence.
Verified users and fewer forgotten passwords.
For import and export freight, the platform records milestones from Mawani ports on both coasts and from customs clearance through FASAH, entered by staff or fed from systems you can legitimately access, so shippers see clearance and onward trucking together.
International freight tracked through to the final door.
Shippers follow loads across regions on one timeline, with milestones for collection, corridor progress, rail legs, border crossings and delivery. Status wording is consistent from Jeddah to Hafr Al Batin, in Arabic and English.
Customers see their whole supply chain, not a city at a time.
Vehicle registrations, operating cards, inspections, insurance and driver licences are tracked centrally with expiry alerts sent to the responsible branch. Head office sees compliance risk for the whole fleet in one view before an audit finds it.
Fewer vehicles stopped or idle for paperwork reasons.
Contract customers are invoiced through your accounting system with ZATCA e-invoicing. For smaller shippers booking ad hoc loads, the app can take payment by mada cards, Apple Pay or SADAD bill references through a licensed payment provider.
Faster cash collection from occasional customers.
Corridor transit times, empty running, asset utilisation, carrier performance and delivery reliability by region help leadership decide where to add capacity, open a branch or change a partner, based on data from the trips themselves.
Network decisions backed by evidence from live operations.
Personal data of drivers and customer staff is handled in line with the PDPL and SDAIA guidance, with role based access, audit logs and hosting in a location agreed during discovery. Cybersecurity design can follow National Cybersecurity Authority controls where your customers expect it.
A platform that passes customer security reviews.
Who this is for
Vision 2030 and the National Transport and Logistics Strategy have pushed Saudi freight towards digital records, better port and rail connections and more private investment. That brings new competitors, new customer expectations and new compliance work. Companies come to us from very different points: some are national groups replacing old software, others are young freight marketplaces building their first platform, and some are shippers who want more control over the carriers they use. Our team includes people in Riyadh, where head office workshops can run in person; regional branches join discovery and reviews by video call. Drivers from several regions test the app before launch, because habits on the northern routes differ from those on the coasts.
Each region may run its own spreadsheet, tracker or outdated system, and head office reconciles them by hand. We plan a single platform and move branches across one at a time, starting with the corridor that causes most pain, while keeping historic data available for reporting and customer disputes. Branch managers are trained on the new platform before their region switches over, so dispatch keeps running on the first morning.
Branch by branch migration keeps the business running.
You connect shippers with licensed carriers and owner operators across the Kingdom. The platform needs onboarding with document checks, load posting and matching, tracking, ratings, payments and dispute handling, built to grow as more carriers join and new regions open. Fraud checks, such as matching vehicle plates against registered documents, protect shippers from carriers who are not who they claim to be.
Carrier onboarding quality sets the tone for shippers.
You handle freight from Jeddah, Dammam and smaller ports through customs and onward to customers anywhere in the country. The platform joins port, customs, rail and truck milestones into one shipment and gives each customer a portal branded as yours. Rail legs on the freight lines between the Gulf coast and Riyadh can sit inside the same shipment as the trucking at either end.
Customers judge you on the inland leg as much as the sea leg.
Retailers, manufacturers and distributors that contract several carriers across regions want one place to tender loads, track delivery and compare performance. A shipper side platform gives procurement facts for rate negotiations and service reviews with each carrier. Carriers can update status in a light partner app, so you do not depend on each one adopting a full system of its own.
Consistent carrier data makes reviews fair.
How we work together
Whichever model you choose, the same product lead stays with the programme from discovery onwards, so decisions made in the first phase are remembered in the fourth. National platforms are rarely built in one go. Most clients start with a fixed scope first phase, often one corridor or the driver and dispatch layer, then continue with a retainer or a dedicated team as more regions join. If you are comparing logistics mobile app developers in Saudi Arabia, look at how each would phase the rollout and protect your data. Codeeo's team of 80+ works from Dubai, Riyadh and Karachi and has delivered 200+ projects across the UAE and the US.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
Cross platform mobile apps for drivers and partners, web consoles for planners and head office, cloud infrastructure in a region chosen for your residency needs, and integrations with ERP, telematics, payment providers and government facing platforms where access is permitted. The architecture is documented so your own engineers, or another supplier, can take it over later.

A shared platform for every region, built around national rules.
For a carrier working across several regions, the work covers driver apps, dispatch consoles, shipper visibility and head office reporting on one data model. It also covers the national requirements every branch shares: electronic transport documents, ZATCA e-invoicing through your accounting system, PDPL compliant handling of personal data and, where appropriate, Nafath identity. Regional differences are handled as settings, not separate systems. The first phase normally proves the model on your busiest corridor before other regions are asked to change how they work.
