    The Egyptian Ministry of Transport envisages a strong boost for the exports through the new improved hinterland connections and DC/dry port activities. The container terminal should become operational by the end of 2022.

    The MoU was signed by Cecilia Battistello-Eckelmann for Contship, Thomas Eckelmann for Eurogate and Egypt's Minister for Transport Lt-Gen Kamel El-Wazir, reports UK's WorldCargo News.

    The existing container terminal, operated by state-owned Damietta Container & Cargo Handling Company, is capable of handling vessels up to 14,000 TEU.
