The Ghana Port and Harbours Authority (GPHA) has announced plans to construct a dry bulk terminal at the Port of Takoradi.

According to GPHA Business Development general manager, Samuel Ntow Kummi, the terminal is designed to support the operations of local dry bulk companies such as Ghana Manganese Company and would improve operations at the port in the future.

“To this end, a delegation from GPHA have paid a visit to the Sea Invest dry bulk terminal in the port of Abidjan to familiarise themselves with the operations and works of Sea Invest – which is also seeking to construct and manage the proposed dry bulk terminal at Takoradi port,” he said.

The delegation had the opportunity to see some of the key activities of terminal operator Sea Invest’s dry bulk terminal, which included the loading and offloading of manganese and other bulk cargoes.
