The Saudi Ports Authority "Mawani," in cooperation with the global company Maersk, announced the arrival of 2,400 standard containers of rice from India at Jeddah Islamic Port between late August and early September. This initiative aims to enhance the availability of food supplies and meet the needs of the local market. The first ship is expected to arrive at the end of August with a capacity of 4,200 containers, followed by the second on September 9 with a capacity of 3,500 containers, bringing the total capacity to 7,700 containers.
