The Saudi Ports Authority (Mawani) has announced that the Jeddah Islamic Port will be listed on the London Metal Exchange (LME) through its strategic partner LogiPoint, a subsidiary of Saudi Industrial Services Co (SISCO).
This listing marks the port as a new delivery hub for copper and zinc, bolstering the Kingdom’s status as a key global logistics platform and enhancing its appeal to international investors.
The move positions Jeddah Islamic Port as a significant global distribution centre, improving market liquidity and offering new delivery options for materials. As one of the largest metals trading exchanges, the LME plays a crucial role in global trade, with most non-ferrous metal futures traded on its platforms.
