For instance, in September 2021, Israel opened its new shipping port along its Mediterranean coast, which will strengthen the nation's position as a regional economic hub and introduce much-needed competition to a sector beset by delays. The Shanghai International Port Group (SIPG), which will run the 5.5 billion shekel (USD 1.7 billion) Bay Port in Haifa, will allow larger classes of cargo ships carrying 18,000 containers or more to dock in Israel.
- These initiatives and investments will increase the volume capacity of the docks, and to handle the ships, in turn, aid in constructing better infrastructure will be required. Hence this is expected to aid the ship port infrastructure market growth in the forecast period.
