CAMEROON NATIONALPort Authority of Kribi renews 3-year MoU with Port of Antwerp
On 1 July 2021, the Port authority of Kribi (PAK) and the Port of Antwerp International renewed the marketing and business development memorandum of understanding binding the two institutions. The memorandum was signed, during a videoconference, by Patrice Melom, the PAK Managing Director, and Kristof Waterschoot, his peer at the Port of Antwerp International.
In order to achieve its ambition of becoming the reference industrial port platform in Central Africa, the Kribi Port, which went operational three years ago, wants to capitalise on the experience of the Port of Antwerp International, which is currently the second most important port in Europe. It will focus on the development of its hosting capabilities and operations. Hence, the new memorandum covers the period from 2021 to 2024.
In 2018, the Port of Antwerp International submitted its offer to exploit the multipurpose terminal of the Port of Kribi. However, after waiting for twoyear, Cameroon selected the Filipino group Philippin International Container Terminal Services Inc. (ICTSI) as the winner of the concession contract on this terminal whose yearly capacity is 1.2 million tonnes.
