The total investment of the two projects is approximately US$700 million, bringing Hutchison Ports’ total investment in Egypt to over US$1.5 billion and laying a solid foundation for the company’s strategy to expand its network and enhance its capabilities in emerging markets.

The investment includes the development of a new container terminal in Ain Sokhna Port with a capacity of 1.7 million TEUs (twenty-foot equivalent units), which will be equipped with state-of-the-art technology and equipment to provide efficient and reliable services to customers. In addition, Hutchison Ports will invest in the development of B100, a new container terminal in Port of Alexandria that will serve as a gateway to the Egyptian market.

Speaking at the concessions signing ceremony in the honourable presence of His Excellency Mostafa Madbouly, Prime Minister of Egypt, and His Excellency Kamel Al Wazir, Minister of Transport, Egypt, Mr. Eric Ip, Group Managing Director of Hutchison Ports, said, “We are delighted to announce our investment in Sokhna and B100, which reflects our commitment to Egypt and the wider African market. These investments will enable us to provide high-quality services to our customers and contribute to the growth and development of the local economy.”

The new container terminal in Sokhna will provide a significant boost to Egypt’s maritime trade, as it is strategically located on the Red Sea and offers direct access to major shipping routes. The B100 container terminal, on the other hand, will provide a new gateway to the Port of Alexandria, which is one of the largest ports in the Mediterranean and a key hub for trade between Europe, Asia, and Africa.

Hutchison Ports has a strong track record of investing in emerging markets and is committed to working closely with local partners and stakeholders to drive sustainable growth and development. The new terminal facilities will further expand the network to 52 ports in 25 countries across Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe, the Americas, and Australasia.

Hutchison Ports is the ports and related services division of CK Hutchison Holdings Limited. Hutchison Ports is the world’s leading port investor, developer, and operator, with a network of 52 port operations spanning 25 countries throughout Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe, the Americas, and Australasia. Over the years, Hutchison Ports has expanded into other logistics and transportation-related businesses, including cruise ship terminals, distribution centers, rail services, and ship repair facilities.
