Trilateral coalition to be formed to establish dry port in Oct. 6th City
The Egyptian Gazette Published in The Egyptian Gazette on 07 - 05 - 2018

CAIRO, May 7, 2018 (MENA) - A memorandum of understanding has been signed in the UAE to form a trilateral coalition between the Suez Canal Economic Zone (SCZone), DP World and the Holding Company of Maritime & Land Transport to establish a dry port in the October 6th City.
The project would serve sustainable development projects in Egypt, said chairman of the SCZone Admiral Mohab Mamish in a statement Monday.
The inking of the MoU is such a constructive step on the right road towards implementing an Egyptian strategy with the aim to upgrade maritime and dry ports, Admiral Mamish said.
A dry port is an inland intermodal terminal directly connected by road or rail to a seaport and operating as a centre for the transshipment of sea cargo to inland destinations.
The projected dry port is going to be the largest logistical centre within Cairo region established over nearly 400 acres of land. It will include 13 specialised zones to receive and store container, liquid and dry bulk cargo. In addition, it will also house multipurpose storage warehouses, an administrative area and customs offices.
