<\/strong>Morocco is getting a n<\/strong>ew dry port:<\/strong> Moroccan government agencies have signed an MoU to construct the Agadir Atlantic Hub dry port, according to a Transport Ministry statement<\/a>. The port will be constructed at the Souss-Massa Export Freezone in Drarga commune at Agadir and will have an estimated cost of MAD 1.4 bn (c. USD 140 mn), Morocco World News<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n

More details: <\/strong>The hub \u2014 which will cover 100 hectares \u2014 is set to feature a global customs-bonded logistics zone, refrigerated and dry storage facilities, a container storage park for both empty and full containers, and a cabotage line connecting maritime ports to the dry port.<\/p>\n

The rationale: <\/strong>The project aims to bolster the logistics infrastructure in Morocco\u2019s Souss-Massa region and ease congestion at Morocco\u2019s maritime ports, Morocco World News reported, citing the president of the General Confederation of Moroccan Enterprises Driss Boutti. <\/p>\n

About <\/strong>the Souss-Massa Freezone: <\/strong>Updated plans to develop the zone \u2014 including the Agadir Atlantic Hub project\u2014 were approved by the government last month, the state-owned agency Maroc<\/a> reported. The zone reportedly aims to attract investments in various manufacturing sectors, including shipbuilding, auto-making, industrial machinery, textiles, construction materials, food products, chemicals, and plastics, Msa AlKhir<\/a> reported back in 2023, citing a government decree. <\/p>\n

Lots of action at Morocco\u2019s ports: <\/strong>The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) extended a EUR 65 mn loan in December<\/a> to Moroccan port operator Marsa Maroc for development works at Casablanca and Jorf Lasfar ports. French logistics provider CMA CGM inked a 25-year agreement with Marsa Maroc to form a joint venture to equip and operate half of Nador West Med container terminal in November<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
