It’s building it as a strategic commitment.
For decades, many Middle Eastern and North African countries managed grain supply through imports: reliable, abundant, assumed to be stable. The last five years have tested that assumption at every level: geopolitical disruption, supply chain fragility, and commodity price volatility.
The response across much of the region has been the same: invest in permanent storage infrastructure. Not temporary buffer capacity, purpose-built grain terminals engineered to hold strategic national reserves, at scale, for the long term.
SIMEZA has operated in this region for decades. The 215.000 tM installation in Jazan, Saudi Arabia, a single project, single engineering team, measures the scale this market now demands. What it requires is the engineering depth to design a facility that meets national food security specifications, integrates with existing port logistics, and performs without interruption for thirty years.
That is the brief we are built for.
