Congo Terminal expands port equipment fleet

Congo Terminal, a subsidiary of Bolloré Ports, has recently invested more than US$1 million to acquire 10 tractors and 10 trailers to improve the efficiency of its operations.

This is the fourth order for rolling stock equipment in the Port of Pointe-Noire’s terminal since 2009, according to a statement.

The latest generation tractors, YT193 and RT223, connected to the Navis 4 operating system, are expected to increase operational production rates at the container yard and enhance the terminal’s productivity.

“The investments made in the Port of Pointe-Noire have enabled us to increase our volumes and improve our production rates,” said Anthony Samzun, managing director of Congo Terminal.

BollorĂ© Ports noted that this acquisition is in line with Congo Terminal’s investment plan, amounting to more than US$440 million, to upgrade infrastructure and equipment.

Samzun added, “We are continuing to invest in new equipment to keep up with the ever-increasing volumes we are now facing.”
