SAL Saudi Logistics Services Company's award of a 233 million Saudi riyals ($62.13 million) construction contract to Contracting and Construction Enterprises Company (CCE) for the second phase of the cargo ground handling station at King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah signifies a continued investment in Saudi Arabia's logistics infrastructure. The project encompasses new construction, modifications to existing structures, and the development of ancillary facilities and utilities. This expansion aims to enhance the airport's cargo handling capacity and efficiency, supporting the growth of trade and logistics activities within the region. The deal is notable for its size, representing a significant capital expenditure in airport infrastructure. The involvement of SAL Saudi Logistics Services Company, a key player in the Saudi logistics sector, and Contracting and Construction Enterprises Company (CCE), an experienced construction firm, adds credibility to the project.
