A concession contract has been signed with Maersk-APM, one of the world leaders in maritime transport, for the development of the new container terminal. This development is also accompanied by the ongoing extension of the passenger and roll-on/roll-off port and will enable the eastern extension of Tanger Med 2.
With the completion of these new projects, the Tanger-Med port complex could reach a total capacity of 20 million containers, allowing it to position itself in the global top 10.
At the end of this working session, His Majesty King Mohammed VI, May God assist Him, stressed the imperative that the economic and social benefits of these projects reach all the provinces concerned and translate into tangible improvements for local populations. In this context, the Sovereign called for the accelerated implementation of training programs tailored to the needs of emerging activities to promote the professional integration of the youth.
This working session was attended by Advisor to HM the King Fouad Ali El Himma, Minister of the Interior Abdelouafi Laftit, Minister of Economy, Finance and Public Performance Fouzi Lekjaa, Minister of Equipment, Water and Forests Nizar Baraka, Minister of Industry, Trade, Investment and Economic Inclusion Ryad Mezzour and Chairman of TMSA’s Oversight Board, Chairman of the Nador West Med Board of Administration Fouad Brini.
