The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development is supporting the construction of a dry port and logistics centre in 10th of Ramadan City, Egypt, with a €1 million contribution to project preparation and procurement.

The new dry port is expected to improve the efficiency of Egypt’s transport infrastructure by reducing congestion at seaports and creating the conditions for accelerated customs processes and procedures. Facilitating trade will contribute to an increase in the competitiveness of local producers, which will help accelerate sustainable economic growth and create employment opportunities.
