Ashdod Port is Israel’s leading seaport, strategically located approximately 40 kilometers south of Tel Aviv, with direct access to the country’s major commercial centers, highways, rail infrastructure, and proximity to the Suez Canal. Serving as a critical gateway in Israel’s supply chain, the Port provides a full spectrum of maritime, logistics, and passenger services.
Ashdod Port offers comprehensive ship services, including vessel entry and anchorage, cargo unloading, loading and storage, container handling, passenger liner infrastructure, and bonded facilities. Its vicinity includes bonded warehouses, cold storage, grain silos, agricultural and citrus facilities, container repair and cleaning services, and a dedicated inland terminal office complex for customers and partners.
The Port benefits from advanced and expandable infrastructure, including a computerized container terminal operated by Terminal Operating Systems (TOS), extensive warehousing areas, a 15.5-meter-deep quay, and strong growth potential across its operational hinterland. A new automated port gate for truck entry and exit is planned, further improving efficiency and throughput.
Customer service is a core strategic priority. Significant investments in equipment, workforce expansion, new docks, and advanced technologies aim to reduce vessel waiting times and enhance service quality. Ashdod Port’s Customers Division maintains close, responsive relationships with domestic and international clients, emphasizing efficiency, transparency, and partnership.
Advanced TOS and ERP systems, alongside GPS, GIS, data analytics, and digital traffic management tools, provide real-time operational visibility, improved coordination, and faster turnaround times. A forthcoming automated truck gateway, incorporating biometrics, smart weighing, camera tracking, and digital communications, will further strengthen Ashdod Port’s position as a modern, customer-centric logistics hub.
