90% of all trade in Africa is done via its ports, this has resulted in major developments and investments in ports cities like Durban, Accra and Mombassa, just to name a few. This year African Ports Evolution 2016 will be focusing on major port development to accommodate Ultra Large Vessels (ULCV), the main reason for most of the port upgrades in Africa. There will also be a focus on container delivery and clearance time to make your port more efficient and to streamline your port through technology inputs.

African Ports Evolution summit and expo has been fostering the interaction between government and the private sector to enhance intra-African and cross border trade, through hinterland connectivity and trade corridors. With the co-located events included into this year’s African Ports Evolution, you are sure to realise the interconnectivity of port development, infrastructure development and economic growth.
