KUWAIT based Agility, a leading global logistics and warehouse provider has opened a new Agility Logistics Park in Maputo, Mozambique, adding to its growing network of international-standard warehouses serving key African markets.
Maputo won much praise for standing in for desperate citrus fruit shippers, who could no longer use Durban during the three-week South African transport strike in 2010.
The new 290,000-square metre Agility park is strategically located on the new Maputo ring road in the Marracuene-Chiongo district, providing easy access to the burgeoning Maputo market and road connections to the major highways leading to the large markets in the north of Mozambique and to South Africa.
The 32,000 square metres of Agility warehousing constructed for the first phase of the development provide ready-built, secure, international-standard facilities that are available to lease by both local companies and multinationals. Tenants lease the warehouses for storage, distribution, packaging, processing, assembly and light manufacturing.
The Agility Logistics Park in Maputo is part of an expanding network of quality warehouse parks that Agility is funding and developing across key markets in Africa to support the development of domestic and regional trade. Other Agility Logistics Parks are located in Ghana, Cote d'Ivoire and Nigeria.
