The two crates, weighing a combined 71 tons, were transported on a RORO vessel to Jeddah. Upon arrival at the port, the team cleared customs and loaded them on a truck for final delivery.
Logistics Plus Saudi Arabia Country Head Nizam Mohammad commented on the project. “Our team was able to execute every leg of this project successfully. The pickup, loading, customs, and delivery of the shipment all went smoothly. I want to thank our team and partners for their support.”

The United States Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo announced that the U.S. has temporarily suspended 232 tariffs on Ukrainian steel for one year. Ukraine’s steel industry is uniquely vital to the country’s economic strength, employing 1 in 13 Ukrainians with good-paying jobs. The thought behind this move is that creating export opportunities for Ukrainian steel mills is essential to the country’s ability to continue employing their workers and maintaining one of Ukraine’s most important industries.
Since Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24th, the Department of Commerce has launched a series of new export control restrictions on Russia in partnership with three dozen allies. These restrictions have severely impacted Russia’s ability to sustain its aggression.
