Potential for Alexandroupolis Port, Tender in the Fall

A tender for the management of the port of Alexandroupolis in northeastern Greece, is set to be launched in the fall, the port authority announced this week.

According to the port authority’s CEO Christos Doukas, “the port of Alexandroupolis has attracted the greatest investment interest compared to other regional ports of the country and its development will impact the community, Evros and the overall region”.

Plans for the port include container/freight activities as well as business, logistics and storage; tourism (yacht, cruise) and passenger transport. The port authority will present a comprehensive business plan for the expansion of the port at a special event in the upcoming weeks.

In the meantime, the ‘Zephyrus’ ferry owned by SAOS Ferries carried out its first route to the island of Samothraki this week.
