🚢🌍 Maersk Opens Largest Logistics Park in the Middle East at Jeddah Islamic Port 🇸🇦
A.P. Moller – Maersk, in partnership with the General Ports Authority of Saudi Arabia (Mawani), has officially opened the Maersk Logistics Park at Jeddah Islamic Port. Spanning 225,000 m², this facility is now the largest of its kind in the Middle East, offering integrated logistics solutions, including multi-modal transport, B2B and e-commerce warehousing, and temperature-controlled storage.
Key highlights include: Sustainability Initiatives: The facility will generate 70% of its electricity from 32,000 solar panels over a 64,000 m² rooftop, alongside the use of electric trucks and energy-efficient equipment as part of Maersk’s decarbonization strategy.
Women’s Academy: A dedicated in-house academy will offer specialized training programs to empower Saudi women in the logistics and supply chain sectors, creating new opportunities in a traditionally male-dominated industry.
Advanced Safety Measures: Equipped with cutting-edge firefighting systems, pedestrian and equipment segregation, and comprehensive surveillance, the park ensures a high standard of safety for all operations.
This marks a significant step forward for logistics innovation, sustainability, and diversity in the region.
