Mawani and Saudi Logistics Services Company (SAL) have entered into an agreement to establish a cutting-edge logistics park spanning 54,000 square meters at Jeddah Islamic Port. The primary aim of this initiative is to elevate both sea and air connectivity and enhance the overall logistics services provided at the port.
This integrated logistics hub will incorporate essential services and advanced environmental systems. Smart warehouses, storage yards for goods, a re-export zone, and facilities for regional sorting and distribution operations, along with value-added processes, are integral components of this development.
Adhering to the latest environmentally friendly international specifications, the logistics park is anticipated to play a pivotal role in advancing the logistics services at Jeddah Islamic Port. The port has undergone significant structural reforms, leading to a notable improvement in operational efficiency within the maritime sector and logistics services, as evidenced by international benchmarks.
This newly proposed logistics park is aligned with Mawani’s strategic objectives, focusing on providing investment opportunities for the private sector, developing sustainable capacities, and offering solutions tailored to the needs of partners. Mawani remains dedicated to achieving the goal of establishing 30 logistics centers for re-export by 2030, in line with the targets outlined in the Saudi National Strategy for Transport and Logistics Services (NTLS). This commitment underscores the kingdom’s position as a premier global logistics center and a vital hub connecting three continents.
Jeddah Islamic Port, acknowledged as the largest port along the Red Sea, has consistently secured top rankings in transit trade, container operations, and cargo handling, according to the 2021 Container Ports Performance Index issued by the World Bank.
