Saudi Minister of Industry and Mineral Resources Bandar bin Ibrahim Alkhorayef has visited the Tanger Med Port Center in Morocco as part of efforts to enhance ties between the Kingdom and Morocco.

During the visit, Alkhorayef was briefed on the stages of container processing, as the port constitutes an important industrial and logistical platform for more than 1,200 companies in various activities, including cars, aircraft, and textiles, and handles about 9 million containers annually.

Alkhorayef toured the facility and saw the logistics services that facilitate international trade, given the port's strategic location.

The minister was accompanied by the Deputy Minister of Industry and Mineral Resources for Mining Affairs, Eng. Khalid bin Saleh Al-Mudaifer, and the Saudi Ambassador to Morocco, Dr. Sami bin Abdullah Al-Saleh.
