Bolloré has opened a new logistics hub in the industrial port of Kribi – a modern base designed for both import and export of goods across the country’s sub-region. The first branch of the 24,000 square-metre base was inaugurated, with a total investment of more than 4 billion CFA francs ($6.4 million) going into the first phase of the project; the total project will be worth 7 billion CFA francs ($11.4 million). The start-up phase includes a 7,720 square-metre operating area, a 6,000 square-metre warehouse and 310 square-metre office space.
The new multimodal platform is connected to the Port of Kribi via a 2.9-kilometre trunk road and offers logistics services aimed at supporting the economic growth of the countries of the sub-region. Kribi Logistics Hub is an essential link in the supply chain to support the development of the new port industrial zone and of the sub-region. The existing synergies with the Port of Kribi, the Customs authority and Kribi Container Terminal mean that we will be able to offer customers excellent quality of service while guaranteeing full control of logistics costs.
