CCIFG On-Site Visit: Meridian Port Services
CCIFG organised an on-site visit to Meridian Port Services Ltd (MPS)
On the 10th of February, members of CCIFG visited and toured MPS at the Tema Port, widely recognized by all shipping lines as the best performing Container Terminal/Port in West and Central Africa.
Meridian Port Services is a joint venture between Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority and Meridian Port Holdings Limited, which is, in turn, a joint venture with Bolloré Transport and Logistics and APM Terminals. Over the years, MPS has considerably invested in Tema Port Infrastructure, Superstructure, Technology and Human Resource development. Through these investments, MPS turned Tema Port into one of the most competitive ports in West and Central Africa and managed to significantly reduce the transports costs for importers, exporters, shipping lines and all other port stakeholders.
After an insightful presentation from the deputy CEO, Cyrille LEMEE, guests were shown around the port and how it operates.
