Jeddah Islamic Port achieves record monthly box throughput

Saudi Arabia’s Jeddah Islamic Port handled 491,197 TEUs in July, setting a new record for the largest box volume ever processed across its facilities over a 30-day period.

“The latest milestone tops the previous record of 473,676 TEUs registered in June this year, continuing a trend that dates back to the previous year which saw a record 4,960,120 TEUs passing through the country’s busiest port, a 1.57% year-on-year uptick from 4,883,627 TEUs,” said Saudi Ports Authority (Mawani) in a statement.

Mawani aims to achieve a 45% share in the regional transshipment market and a sector-wide annual capacity of 40 million TEUs.

“Jeddah Islamic Port’s recent numbers reflect its fast-growing stature as a pioneering East-West trade hub boasting a world-class maritime infrastructure and end-to-end logistics solutions,” highlighted Mawani.
