The Port of Charleston announced a new breakbulk/container service that will provide connectivity to several ports in the Middle East and India.  The “North America” service of the National Shipping Company of Saudi Arabia (NSCSA) will have a rotation that includes the ports of Jeddah, Jubail and Dammam in Saudi Arabia; Jebel Ali, United Arab Emirates; Mumbai, India; Port Qasim, Pakistan and Livorno, Italy.  

No indication was given as to the anticipated volume of the new service.  However, any win in this economy is a great win.  Keep up the good work Charleston!
