A second MoU was signed with the Egyptian Group for Multipurpose Terminals and the River Transport Authority to bolster the development of the maritime sector in Egypt.

Both agreements aim at furthering the development of Egypt’s maritime industry and follow a recent partnership to explore the establishment of large-scale green fuel production in the nation.

Rear Admiral Abdul Qadir Darwish, Chairman of the Egyptian Group for Multipurpose Terminals, said: “These agreements represent an important step in the field of maritime and river transport in Egypt by developing port operations and establishing and operating logistics areas. The Egyptian Multipurpose Terminals Group and AD Ports Group have a close collaborative relationship and this collaboration has resulted in these important agreements that will play a key role in supporting Egypt’s maritime and river port ecosystem.”

AD Ports Group recently released its audited financial results for 2021, registering an increase of 14 per cent over 2020 with a revenue of $1.1.

The group’s container throughput rose to 3.4 million TEU in 2021, increasing from 3.2 million TEU in 2020.
