Crown Prince Moulay El Hassan of Morocco has opened the first container terminal of the Nador West Med port. The opening marks the start of operations.

The Crown Prince opened the East Container Terminal in the commune of Iaâzzanène on the instruction of his father, King Mohammed VI. Marsa Maroc and Terminal Investment Limited (TIL), a subsidiary of the shipping group MSC, secured the 25-year concession to operate and maintain the terminal.

During the opening ceremony, Crown Prince Moulay El Hassan launched the terminal’s first commercial container from a cargo ship.

There will also be a West Terminal, containing 900 meters of quay and 38 hectares of storage yards. This is expected to begin operations in April 2027.
