AD Ports Group has officially launched trial operations at the Noatum Ports – Safaga Terminal in Egypt. This preliminary phase precedes the terminal's full operational launch, which is anticipated to occur later in the current year. The initiative was inaugurated with the presence of His Excellency Lieutenant-General Eng. Kamel El Wazir, Egypt's Minister of Transport, and Captain Mohamed Juma Al Shamisi.

This could positively impact routing decisions and overall supply chain reliability for cargo moving through Egyptian ports.
