History
In 2024, Agility Global PLC began trading on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX).
The company’s stake in an aviation services business started in 2003, when National Aviation Services (NAS) began operating at a single airport in Kuwait and later expanded across emerging markets in the Middle East and Africa.[6] In 2022, Agility acquired Menzies Aviation and combined it with NAS, creating one of the world’s largest aviation services providers by geographic footprint.[7] In 2025, Menzies Aviation expanded further through the acquisition of G2 Secure Staff, increasing its presence to 350 airports in 65 countries.[8]
In 2003, Agility acquired a stake in Tristar, a Dubai-based fuel logistics company founded in 1998. Tristar provides fuel transportation, storage, and maritime logistics services and operates in 30 countries across five continents, including a tanker fleet of more than 20 vessels. The company reported revenue of approximately US$1.2 billion in FY 2024.[9]
Agility Logistics Parks (ALP) started in a single country in the Gulf and has since expanded across the Middle East, India, and Africa. In Saudia Arabia, ALP operates more than 1.5m sqm of warehousing in across Riyadh, Dammam, and Jeddah. Its warehouses in Côte d’Ivoire and Riyadh were the first EDGE Advanced–certified logistics facilities in West Africa and the Middle East, respectively, designed to achieve at least 40% greater energy efficiency than conventional warehousing buildings.
Agility’s stake in DSV (company) stems from the 2021 sale of its Global Integrated Logistics (GIL) business to the Danish logistics company in an all-shares transaction. The GIL business had been built between 2003 and 2020 through more than 40 acquisitions, creating a network of over 550 offices in more than 100 countries. Following the transaction, Agility became one of DSV’s largest shareholders and holds a stake of approximately 8%, as of end 2025.[10]
Agility Global also owns a stake in Reem Mall, a retail and entertainment complex in Abu Dhabi that opened to visitors in 2023. The mall includes more than 400 stores, over 80 dining outlets, and attractions such as Snow Abu Dhabi, an indoor snow park.

Sustainability
Agility Global reports on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance through periodic sustainability disclosures aligned with international reporting frameworks. The company’s sustainability strategy focuses on reducing environmental impact and driving social and economic development in the communities where it operates.
Sustainability oversight is structured through a group-level framework that establishes overall priorities and reporting standards across the portfolio.

Agility reports that businesses representing more than 96% of its workforce and over 90% of its greenhouse-gas emissions have committed to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 or earlier. The company has also reported reductions in greenhouse-gas emissions relative to its baseline year and has introduced initiatives related to renewable energy use, energy-efficient infrastructure, and resource conservation across its operating companies.
