Iran, Oman launch new container shipping line to transit cargoes


(MENAFN) According to the head of Iran's Trade Promotion Organization (TPO), Iran and Oman started a new container shipping line to transit cargoes among the southern Iranian port city of Bandar Abbas and Port Sultan Qaboos in Oman.

 

On Saturday, the line which officially began operation is going to be used to transit container cargoes, mostly fruits, and vegetables, among both countries, as said by Hamid Zadboum.

 

A maritime collaboration deal was inked between Iran and Oman in December 2019 for improving maritime transportation between both countries.

 

Based on the deal, Iranian traders and businessmen would be able to interact constructively with their Omani counterparts, and regular shipping lines were to be established among both countries, while the two sides also vowed to offer facilities for using each other's ports.
