10/12/2026

 

The collaboration between Port of NEOM and CEVA Almajdouie represents a shared commitment to enhancing supply chain connectivity, and facilitating seamless cargo movement across borders. Together, the partners are expanding access to the European multimodal corridor, unlocking new opportunities for customers and strengthening trade links between regional and international markets.

By uniting Port of NEOM’s prime location on the Red Sea with CEVA Almajdouie Logistics’ ground infrastructure, cross-border trucking fleet, and customs brokerage capabilities, this partnership aims to strengthen a vital trade artery connecting Europe, Egypt, the GCC, and Iraq.

Unlocking Cargo Flows Beyond the Port Gate

Overall supply chain efficiency is often tied to how rapidly cargo moves beyond the terminal perimeter. By pairing maritime access with scalable overland transport, bonded warehousing and localized customs clearance, the operation could support a full spectrum of cargo requirements:

  • Containerized & RoPax Freight: Accelerating transit times for commercial goods moving into domestic consumer markets.
  • Bulk & General Cargo: Providing reliable, continuous capacity for regional trade routes.
  • Heavy-Lift & Project Logistics: Enabling specialized transport for major infrastructure components and oversized equipment.

"Connecting maritime gateways directly to high-capacity inland networks is critical to modern supply chain resilience," notes Stefano Pollotti, CEO of CEVA Almajdouie Logistics. "By pairing our ground fleet, bonded warehousing, and regional customs expertise with the advanced infrastructure at Port of NEOM, we could offer faster, more flexible supply chains that extend seamlessly from the berth into Saudi Arabia and neighboring markets."
