Work on the second phase of the Tema Port Expansion Project in Ghana is in full swing.

According to the latest update, the new revetment and dredging works are progressing nicely, and the yard expansion is approaching the next milestone on time.

In a historic moment for Ghana’s maritime landscape, the second phase of the Tema Port expansion was officially launched in November 2023 by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

The initiative, a crucial component of the Ghana Ports and Harbors Authority’s (GPHA) master plan, introduces a fleet of 15 cutting-edge gantry cranes at Meridian Port Services (MPS) container terminal and significant civil works development, reinforcing the port’s role as a paramount hub for West Africa.

The terminal is operated by MPS, a joint venture between Ghana Ports and Harbors Authority (30%), APM Terminals (35%) and Africa Global Logistics (35%).
