Head Office Riyadh, KSA
  • The National Shipping Company of Saudi Arabia (NSCSA)  was established in 1979 to meet the transportation needs of Importers and Exporters in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and other countries in the Middle East.

  • By 1983, NSCSA has established itself as a combination Roll-on/Roll-off (Ro-Ro), Container and Breakbulk carrier, operating 8 fully owned vessels.  It had become one of the world's largest Ro-Ro operators, offering liner services linking the Middle East with North America, the Far East and Europe.

  • In 1991, NSCSA (America) Inc., was established to serve as the General Agent in North America for the Liner Service between U.S., Canada and the Middle East/India Subcontinent/East Mediterranean regions.

  • NSCSA specializes in Project, Heavy Lift and Ro-Ro cargoes, as well as containers.

  • In 1997, NSCSA began service between North America and Italy, Greece and Turkey.

Our mission is two-fold:  to establish close working relationships with our customers, and to offer them the most secure, most cost-effective and most reliable carrier service.  The introduction of new and improved service schedules, further streamlined operations and greater customer satisfaction is evidence that we're fulfilling that commitment worldwide.
