Mohammed told LNME: “We have improved our internal corporate governance and reporting structure tremendously.

We are in the process of re-evaluating our next 5-year strategy plan with the focus on improving our position in the marketplace and enhancing our investor’s relations programs.”
In the past 12 months, SISCO added the North Container Terminal in Jeddah to their port sector, making SISCO and its subsidiaries the largest container terminal operator in Saudi Arabia. SISCO also signed a new 25-year BOT contract for our water business to develop the city of Taif ISTP plant.

In the logistic sector we are developing additional built-to-suit warehousing and logistic facilities for the growing e-commers industry in Saudi Arabia; in addition, we are in the process of evaluation a new multi-user warehouse facility in the city of Jubail for the petrochemical industry. We are also in the bidding process for 2 major BOT projects in the water sector and embarking on new O&M projects.”
