A multipurpose industrial terminal in San Pedro
The multipurpose industrial terminal of San Pedro(TIPSP) is a strategic public-private partnership between ARISE P&L, S. Energies and the Republic of Côte d’Ivoire. With a total investment of 173 million EUR, the terminal is an integral part of the Port Autonome de San Pedro extension that began in May 2019. TIPSP is dedicated to handling solid and liquid bulk commodities, including many mining minerals produced in West African countries.
The terminal operations were launched in November 2021. More than 1.4 million tons of nickel ore export were handled in the first nine months of operation.
With its modern and efficient equipment, the terminal promises competitive advantages to its customers and a tremendous impact on industrial activity in the region.
Referred to as the New Gateway of West Africa, the strategic geographic location of the terminal of San Pedro offers a new efficient access to global trades for the neighbouring countries (Mali, Burkina Faso…)
