Tanger Med achieves record throughput of more than 7m teu in 2021

The Tanger Med port complex saw container volumes soar 24% year-on-year in 2021, totalling just under 7.2m teu.

The traffic was achieved from the steady ramp-up of Tanger Med 2 after the successive commissioning of the terminals TC4 in 2019 and TC3 in 2021.

Tanger Med handled over 101m tonnes of goods for the first time in 2021, up 25% compared to 2020, with the tonnage handled by the port complex representing more than 50% of the overall tonnage handled by all Moroccan ports.
