Established in 1992, as the other state holdings, to implement the
country.s privatization program, the maritime holding has also
received the inland transport companies portfolio, after its
merge.
The transport sector is considered to offer major new opportunities,
to develop the much needed logistics both inland and maritime,
to support the industrial and export growth of the Egyptian
production.
The maritime sector is as well boasted by the upgrading and
automation of most Egyptian ports and the presence of
multinationals such as P & O Neddloyd, Marks, as well as
more recently by the arrival of major Gulf Arab groups, such as
KGL(Kuwait) in Damietta Mediterranean port & Dubai World in
Sokhna Port[Red Sea].
In January 2008 the Holding Co. accomplished Cairo Land &
Regional Transportation Station in Down Town, Cairo on an
area of 52000m2 to serve the passengers movement all over
Egypt.
