The Saudi Ports Authority (Mawani) has added the new shipping service “East Africa Express”, by the Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC), to King Abdul Aziz Port in Dammam. It will connect the Kingdom to the ports of East Africa.
This move aligns with Mawani’s efforts to boost investment and logistics services in the Kingdom, and support the National Transport and Logistics Strategy (NTLS), which aims to strengthen the Kingdom’s position as a vital link connecting three continents and a global logistics hub.
The new shipping service links King Abdul Aziz Port in Dammam with Mundra Port in India, Qasim Port in Pakistan, and Abu Dhabi and Jebel Ali Ports in the UAE through regular weekly trips, offering a capacity of up to 11,000 TEUs.
