Euroports and its partner GEK TERNA celebrated recently a significant milestone with the official signing ceremony for the sub-concession of the commercial port “Philippos B” in Kavala, Greece.
Euroports partners with GEK TERNA Group in Greece, which business focus is on the fields of infrastructure, power generation, supply and trade, concessions and waste management.
Strategically located in northeastern Greece, approximately 160 kilometres from Thessaloniki, Kavala offers excellent road connections, as Euroports claims in its statement, with plans for future rail links to the East-West railway line, further enhancing its accessibility.
The new terminal spans nearly 180,000 square metres and is equipped to handle a wide range of cargo types, including minerals (primarily marble), fertilisers, agribulk, and general cargo.
With a maximum draft of 12.5 metres, a RoRo ramp, and two quays measuring 610 and 315 metres in length, Euroports says the “terminal is well-positioned to meet the region’s growing logistics demands.”
“We see great potential in the wider region and are convinced that our international network of terminals will create meaningful synergies with this new location,” said Pablo Garcia, managing director of Euroports MED.
“This is the first step in a broader ambition to contribute to the development of the region, including establishing a corridor towards Bulgaria and other locations in the near future,” he added.
