Sino-French consortium to built Cameroon container terminal at Kribi
A CONSORTIUM led by France's Bollore has been awarded the contract to develop and operate a container terminal in Cameroon's deep-water port of Kribi, the prime minister's office has announced.
That marked a dramatic turnaround after Cameroon in April had excluded the Bollore group from a shortlist of consortia competing to manage the port, Reuters reported.
Bollore's consortium included France's CMA CGM and China's CHEC, which built the Kribi deep-sea port. No details of the winning bid were released.
The government is rushing to get Kribi port operational to ease congestion on Douala, said the report.
