AD Ports ramps up its Angola operations<\/strong>:<\/strong> AD Ports Group has inked a slew of MoUs with Angolan private and public sector players in a bid to expand its Angola operation, as well as digitalize and develop the country\u2019s logistics sector \u2014 focusing on maritime, land, and air freight operations, according to a statement<\/a>. The agreements came on the back of UAE\u2019s President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan's state visit to Angola this week, which also saw the signing of a economic partnership agreement aiming to boost bilateral trade to USD 10 bn by 2033, Wam<\/a> reported. <\/p>\n

Here is a rundown of the agreements:<\/strong><\/p>\n

#1- Boosting digitalization:<\/strong> AD Ports\u2019 digital arm Maqta Technologies inked a three-year agreement with Angola 's trade regulator Ag\u00eancia Reguladora de Certifica\u00e7\u00e3o de Carga e Log\u00edstica de Angola (ARCCLA) to set up a digital single logistics trade window. The platform \u2014 named JUL \u2014 aims to streamline customs and trade-related processes in the country and will be first deployed to focus on maritime trade.<\/p>\n

#2- Expanding its trucking fleet: <\/strong>AD Port\u2019s Angolan logistics subsidiary Noatum Unicargas Logistics will also uptake 30 new trucks and 45 new trailers \u2014 an acquisition earmarked at some USD 6 mn. This move is scheduled to almost double the company\u2019s fleet to hit 70 trucks and 95 trailers in operation.<\/p>\n

#3- Bolstering ground handling capacity: <\/strong>The Abu Dhabi-based giant also inked an agreement with Sociedade Gestora de Aeroportos (SGA) to boost ground handling, logistics services, cargo handling, and warehousing at Catumbela\u2019s Aeroporto International Paulo Texeira Jorge.<\/p>\n

#4- Boosting medical logistics:<\/strong> Docktour, AD Ports JV with UAE medical services provider Burjeel Holdings, is set to collaborate with the Angolan Health Ministry to explore ways to offer logistics and supply chain services to move medical equipment, pharmaceuticals and healthcare supplies.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s not all:<\/strong> The firm also inked an MoU with the Transport Ministry in a bid to foster ways to cooperate on Cabinda\u2019s Caio Deepwater Terminal and the Dante Freezone Multipurpose Terminal<\/a>. <\/p>\n

AD Ports ?Angola: <\/strong>AD Ports secured a 20-year concession<\/a> with Angola\u2019s Luanda Port Authority to operate and upgrade the Luanda multipurpose port terminal last year. AD Ports is shelling out USD 251 mn to modernize the terminal and its logistics operations between 2025 and 2026. <\/p>\n

REMEMBER-<\/strong> The Luanda Port port currently handles over 76% of Angola\u2019s container and general cargo volumes and serves as one of Central-West Africa\u2019s key transhipment hubs, enabling land-locked countries \u2014 including the DRC and Zambia \u2014 to access maritime trade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
