Tanger Med Port Terminal Breaks Container Handling Record Despite Global Challenges

APM Terminals, the management group of the first transshipment terminal at the Tanger Med port, has just broken its own record. It recorded more than 2.2 million standard containers (TEUs) in 2021.

This is a feat for the group, which shows a 10% increase compared to 2020. A performance recorded in a context marked by the Covid-19 pandemic and the blockage of the Suez Canal in March 2021. With more than 2.2 million TEUs, APM Terminals Tangier has just confirmed its title as the best terminal for the year 2021.

The management is delighted with this new record, which is the fruit of the continuous commitment of the employees, the social stability of the Kingdom, as well as the strong contribution of its partners. With the figures achieved each year by the group, no accident has been reported. This transshipment terminal is one of the most productive in Tanger Med, as it alone handles 30% of the total container volume passing through the Moroccan megaport, while displaying high productivity levels.
