Saudi-listed Al Ashghal Al Moysra Co. has been awarded a significant contract by the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority (ZATCA), valued at approximately 16 million Saudi riyals including value-added tax. The project encompasses comprehensive cleaning, operation, and maintenance services for ZATCA's Customs Department facilities at the Jeddah Islamic Port, as well as Rabigh and its related infrastructure. The project was officially awarded on August 24, with the final contract signing scheduled for October 24.
This contract win represents a positive operational update for Al Ashghal Al Moysra, strengthening its project pipeline and revenue visibility in the Saudi market. Institutional and retail investors in the Saudi Exchange (Tadawul) view government-backed operational contracts as a stable source of recurring cash flows. The absence of related parties in the deal also underscores transparent governance standards, which supports general investor confidence in the company's expansion strategy.
From a regional perspective, the contract highlights the ongoing demand for infrastructure maintenance and port facility services driven by Saudi Arabia's broader logistics and economic initiatives under Vision 2030. Investors will be monitoring the formal contract signing in October and the subsequent execution phase to assess the positive impact on the company's financial balance sheet and future earnings statements.
