Abidjan Terminal welcomes the largest container vessel in its history

This 275m long vessel, with a capacity of 5,411 containers, has reached the waterfront of Abidjan Terminal, in presence of Asta-Rosa Cissé, Managing Director of Abidjan Terminal, Fabio Politi Managing Director of MSC Côte d’Ivoire, Hien SIe, Managing Director of Abidjan Port authority, and Pierre Bellerose, Regional Managing Director of Bolloré Transport& Logisitcs Côte d’Ivoire.

Welcoming the vessel was made possible thanks to Vridi Channel expansion and dredging works completed last February. These modernization works, borne by the port authorities, will strengthen the competitiveness of the port of Abidjan.

The company is committed to support the increasing vessel capacity by offering competitive handling performance to the highest international standards.
On this occasion, a commemorative plaque was presented by the Director General of Abidjan Terminal to Captain Abbas Manzar, Commander of MSC Dymphna.
