RIYADH, March 7 (Bernama-SPA) -- The Saudi Ports Authority (Mawani) has announced the addition of Hapag-Lloyd’s SE4 shipping service to Jeddah Islamic Port, a move designed to bolster the Kingdom's maritime competitiveness and global trade connectivity.
This new route links Jeddah to major international hubs, including Tianjin Xingang, Qingdao, Ningbo, and Shanghai in China, as well as Busan in Korea and Tanjung Pelepas in Malaysia, Saudi Press Agency (SPA) reported.
Boasting a capacity of up to 17,000 TEUs, the service aligns with the National Transport and Logistics Strategy to establish Saudi Arabia as a leading global logistics hub connecting three continents.
Jeddah Islamic Port continues to expand its operational footprint, utilising its 62 multi-purpose berths and specialised terminals to support a total handling capacity of 130 million tonnes.
