Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) – The recently formed India-Saudi-Iraq (ISI) shipping line by Singapore-based feeder operator Bengal Tiger Line will soon include King Abdulaziz Port, according to the Saudi Ports Authority (Mawani).
The ISI service line uses a 929-TEU ship to travel between the hub at Dammam and the ports in Umm Qasr, Iraq and Mundra, India.
The regional route, which is aligned with the goals of the National Transport and Logistics Plan, increases Saudi Arabia’s marine connectivity while equipping importers and exporters with best-in-class solutions and helping it become the world’s top logistics destination.
In order to manage the functioning of the Saudi ports, Mawani was founded in 1976. From its foundation, Mawani has been committed to promoting commerce between the Kingdom and the rest of the globe and turning Saudi ports into investment hubs.
