The Namibian Ports Authority (Namport) has signed a contract with Africa Global Logistics (AGL) to manage the Walvis Bay Multipurpose Bulk Terminal.
The deal comes after an international call for tenders launched by Namport in January 2023.
“We are honored by the trust that the Namibian authorities have placed in us. Our vision is to make the Port of Walvis Bay a model of international connectivity, sustainable development, and economic growth. Together, we will build a strategic hub for global trade, which will serve the prosperity of Namibia and Africa as a whole,” said Olivier de Noray, Director of Ports and Terminals at AGL.
AGL, which recently joined the MSC Group, is the leading multimodal logistics operator in Africa, offering global, tailor-made, and innovative logistics solutions to its African and international customers.
With a network of 250 logistics and maritime agencies, 23 port and rail concessions, 66 dry ports, and 2 river terminals, and a team of more than 23,000 people in 49 countries, AGL is expected to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the Walvis Bay Multipurpose Bulk Terminal.
