Abu Dhabi, UAE – The AD Ports Group has launched a new weekly shipping service that facilitates commercial and logistic connectivity with Qatar and Kuwait.
The services are likely to be free for cargo arriving via land transport throughout Ramadan, which will be shipped via container vessels between UAE’s Khalifa Port, Qatar’s Hamad Port, and Kuwait’s Port of Shuwaikh and/or Port of Shuaiba, reports said.
AD Ports Group would provide customers with a digital appointment booking system for the new service through the Advanced Trade and Logistics Platform (ATLP).
The ATLP is developed and operated by Maqta Gateway, the digital arm of AD Ports Group, under the supervision of the Department of Economic Development – Abu Dhabi, say reports.
Captain Ammar Mubarak Al Shaiba, Acting CEO of the Maritime Cluster and SAFEEN Group, AD Ports Group, said the Group is enhancing its potential to accomplish its clients’ needs.
“As always, we strive to establish strong business partnerships and launch new services to develop ways of cooperation and integration, in addition to enhancing trade connectivity,” he said.
The initiative follows the establishment of a new shipping service dedicated to Ro-Ro, between Khalifa Port and Shuwaikh Port.
