mediterranean shipping company india: below are the numbers that actually matter in Saudi practice — rates, transit times, paperwork — with Masar ready to run it end to end.
The Saudi baseline first: Indicative 2026 rates: 20ft container from China $1,300–2,600, LCL $25–60/CBM, air cargo $2–6/kg, Dubai–Riyadh truck SAR 3,500–6,000. All-in landed cost — freight, port charges, duty 5%, VAT 15% — is the only number worth comparing.
On the India lane specifically: sea freight to Saudi ports takes 7–14 days and air 2–4 days; typical cargo includes rice and food commodities, pharmaceuticals, textiles, machinery and auto parts. Main routings: Nhava Sheva (Mumbai), Mundra or Chennai to Jeddah and Dammam. India is a high-volume corridor with short sea transit to both Saudi coasts. Food commodities need SFDA registration, and pharmaceuticals follow a separate SFDA licensing track that must start well before shipping.
