DP World Dubai's record Jeddah throughput
The South Container Terminal at Jeddah Islamic Port achieved a record performance in July 2026, handling over 221,200 standard containers, marking the highest monthly total since its operations began in 1999. This figure surpasses pre-shipment congestion levels seen in late 2023. The terminal also recorded its highest monthly export volume of 79,720 containers. This strong performance comes amid a 79% growth in container handling during the first half of the year, driven by DP World’s investments in increasing capacity and upgrading facilities, as well as a gradual rebound in Red Sea shipping services following disruptions at the end of 2023. These investments include the addition of new cranes and infrastructure upgrades, along with ongoing expansions to raise the capacity to 5 million containers annually, enhancing the port’s capabilities and ensuring more efficient and reliable operations.
