Tanger Med eyes transhipment growth

摘要

SITTING at the northwest edge of Africa, within sight of Spain, the port of Tanger Med guards the Strait of Gibraltar, one leg of a contemporary Pillars of Hercules that it shares with its northern neighbour, Algeciras. That geographical position has helped it, in just 10 years, rise from nothing to a top 100 container port. With annual volumes of just shy of 3m teu, Tanger Med sits at 51 in the Lloyd's List Top 100 ports rankings.
