As the only terminal in Angola capable of berthing two larger ships simultaneously and offering the country's largest storage capacity, we provide your business with direct access to Angola's expanding consumer base and natural resource sectors, while facilitating seamless connectivity to the southern regions of Africa including Kinshasa, Katanga, and Lusaka.
Our deep-water access, customs scanner for export cargo, and state-of-the-art digital systems have doubled average hourly throughput, positioning us to handle growing trade volumes as Angola continues its economic transformation and integration into international supply chains.
