The Alexandria Containers and Cargo Handling Company decided to reduce container handling fees by c. 20% for eight of its services starting August, Al Mal reported on Tuesday. The move is a bid to attract customers after the recent fuel price hike, which is expected to have an inflationary effect on shipping and transport fees.
