Jeddah Islamic Port has proudly announced the arrival of the maiden vessel from Saudi container line, Folk Maritime, marking a significant milestone for the Kingdom’s maritime sector. The port celebrated this key event with the crew of the ship, dubbed Sunset X, to honor the collaborative efforts of the Saudi Ports Authority (MAWANI) and Folk Maritime in escalating the Kingdom’s profile as a premier logistics hub, in alignment with the ambitious Saudi Vision 2030 roadmap.

Folk Maritime stands as the Kingdom’s pioneering container and feeder ship company, dedicated to delivering ancillary ship services, as well as short-haul maritime cargo solutions.

The company’s selection of Jeddah Islamic Port is a testament to the port’s sterling global reputation and operational proficiency, boasting 62 versatile berths and state-of-the-art capabilities to accommodate a variety of ship sizes and classifications. The port’s competitive edge is further solidified by its status as the prime maritime gateway on the Red Sea.

In a strategic move to bolster market and trade flows in the region, MAWANI has recently unveiled the addition of the new ‘NRS’ shipping service by Folk Maritime at the Jeddah Islamic Port. This service aims to connect the Kingdom with ports along the northern Red Sea and is the sixth new navigational service introduced by the authority since the onset of 2024.
