The article focuses on the expansion project of the container terminal at Beirut Port, a significant step toward restoring its role as a center for maritime transportation and logistics services in Lebanon and the region. The project involves an investment of $100 million from the French company CMA CGM and aims to increase the terminal's area from 45 to 80 hectares and enhance its operational capacity from 1.2 million to approximately 2.8 million containers annually. The expansion includes infrastructure upgrades, support for truck movement, quay development, and equipment modernization to ensure better organization of cargo flow and higher efficiency. This long-term investment comes more than 13 years after the last expansion in 2013, bolstering the port's position in regional trade and supporting local economies.
