+1 (818) 600-0008FCL and LCL ocean freight from Jeddah and Dammam, plus air cargo from Riyadh and Jeddah.
Customs cleared, picked up at LA and Long Beach, and delivered to your door anywhere in the western U.S.
Saudi Arabia shipped $10.5 billion in goods to the U.S. in 2025, and while crude carries the headline, the containerized trade is petrochemical: polymers, resins and plastics from the SABIC complexes at Jubail and Yanbu, fertilizers, aluminum, and a growing consumer layer as Vision 2030 pushes manufacturing beyond oil. Two coasts split the freight. Jeddah Islamic Port on the Red Sea is the Kingdom's main container gateway and serves the west. King Abdulaziz Port in Dammam covers the Gulf coast and the eastern industrial cities, with Jubail's petrochemical output at its doorstep.
AEEM Shipping manages the full move: FCL bookings and LCL consolidations out of Jeddah and Dammam, air cargo from Riyadh and Jeddah, customs clearance handled by licensed customs brokers while your freight is on the water, and same-day drayage at every San Pedro Bay terminal on arrival. One point of contact from Saudi origin to U.S. door, tracked in real time with 24/7 dispatch.
Origin port to final door, managed by one team.

Saudi containers mostly carry chemistry. Polyethylene, polypropylene and resins from the Jubail and Yanbu complexes feed American plastics manufacturers, fertilizer moves in bulk bags, and aluminum from the Kingdom's smelters rounds out the industrial mix. Routing splits by coast: Jeddah cargo can sail west through Suez or east through the Indian Ocean, while Dammam cargo runs east through the Gulf, and both reach San Pedro Bay in roughly 32 to 38 days with transshipment at Jebel Ali, Colombo or Singapore along the way.
Petrochemical freight has its own discipline. Polymer classifications run line by line in the tariff schedule and the wrong HTS code moves real money at these volumes, some resins carry temperature and moisture handling requirements, and fertilizer products need their documentation clean before entry. We sort classification at booking, choose the routing per shipment instead of defaulting, file ISF before loading, clear entries through licensed customs brokers while the freight is on the water, and on arrival keep the box moving with appointments set off the vessel ETA.

Rates move with container size, season, fuel surcharges, and routing. Send us the origin, cargo, and volume and we return a real all-in quote covering ocean freight, destination charges, duties, and delivery.
If your cargo fills most of a 20-foot container, FCL is usually faster and cheaper per unit. Smaller volumes move LCL, often consolidating through Jebel Ali, which typically adds one to two weeks over FCL because of consolidation at origin and deconsolidation on arrival.
Yes. Polymers and resins need precise HTS classification because rates run line by line, and some products carry temperature and moisture handling requirements in transit. We sort classification at booking and coordinate the right equipment, with entries handled by licensed customs brokers.
