The 225,000 square metre facility will provide Maersk’s customers extensive infrastructure for warehousing and distribution, cold storage, e-commerce and serve as a hub for transhipment, petrochemical consolidation, air freight and LCL (less than container load) cargo. “The $346m investment project will not only create bespoke logistics solutions but also focus heavily on decarbonising logistics with the use of renewable energy to power the entire facility. The project is expected to create more than 2,500 direct and indirect jobs in Saudi Arabia,” Maersk said. Source: www.seatrade-maritime.com
