The Saudi Ports Authority (MAWANI) declared registering the biggest rise year-on-year in the number of outbound containers across its supervised ports in October 2025, reaching 127,840 standard containers.
In a statement released Thursday, the authority said that this growth reflects the Kingdom’s rising export capabilities, evolving infrastructure and increased capacity for national ports.
According to Argaam’s data, Saudi ports supervised by MAWANI recorded an 8.6% rise in the total handled cargo in which includes solid bulk cargo and liquid bulk cargo, to 22.52 million ton in September, compared to 20.74 million tons in the same period a year earlier.
In mid-2025, MAWANI, in partnership with the National Center for Privatization PPP, signed build-operate-transfer (BOT) contracts with national partners – Saudi Global Ports (SGP) and Red Sea Gateway Terminal (RSGT) – at an investment value of more than SAR 2.2 billion for multi-purpose cargo terminals at eight ports across the Kingdom.
