Nador:The Port of Nador West Med has been highlighted as a key project in enhancing Morocco's status as a significant maritime hub, as emphasized by Diego Aponte, CEO of MSC/Terminal Investment Limited, during a recent press event.

According to Agence Marocaine De Presse, the launch of operations at the first container terminal of the Nador West Med port took place on Saturday in the commune of Iaazzanene, Nador Province.
