CEVA Logistics, now a CMA CGM unit, is expanding African operations with two new fish loaders at the Port of Abidjan, Ivory Coast.
The new loaders allow ceva to offer a solution for frozen tuna exports from the West African country, with exports set to exceed 150,000 tons by 2023.
The CEVA Logistics team in Ivory Coast will use the new equipment to further expand its capabilities, which also include stuffing, handling, and managing all customs clearance.
The loaders were imported from Spain, and assembled at the docks by technicians, and wheeled into position.
Owning the loaders allows CEVA to deliver reliable performances in fish loading, avoiding costly downtime.
'At CEVA Logistics, we are committed to delivering responsive logistics,' said CEVA Logistics managing director for west and northern Africa Hakim Hadji.
'At the Port of Abidjan, this commitment led us to invest in these new fish loaders that enable us to be more efficient and control the entire loading process for our customers. At the same time, we are able to support the port's ability to welcome a greater number of trawlers through reduced turnaround times. The loaders are now fully operational and delivering improved throughput results on a daily basis,' said Mr Hadji.
