Learn about Zhikal Logistics Services, an Afghan-owned logistics and supply-chain company operating nationwide since 2011.
Built for complex delivery.
Zhikal Logistics Services is an Afghan-owned project logistics and supply-chain company established in 2011.
From Kabul headquarters and five regional operating zones, we combine experienced field access with disciplined workplans, approvals, inspection, delivery evidence and reconciliation.
The company supports UN agencies, NGOs, institutions and private-sector clients with procurement, distribution, event management, cash administration, transportation, vehicle rental, warehousing and digital reporting — engaged individually or as one integrated programme.
