Building the next generation of ports and rail in Mozambique

Infrastructure is one of Mozambique government’s four investment priorities as it unlocks economic growth and competitiveness. The World Bank forecast $9 billion in revenues from coal and gas alone by 2032, while exciting opportunities also exist in agricultural, oil, graphite and other commodities.

To efficiently manage current and future demand new ports and connecting railway infrastructure must be built while existing ports and railway infrastructure must be expanded and upgraded. Improved regional integration will provide better transport connections and encourage trade between countries. Mozambique enjoys a privileged and strategic location as the natural exit for most of its landlocked neighbors.

Mozambique Ports and Rail Evolution is Mozambique’s only dedicated ports and rail mega event that brings the entire value chain of suppliers and buyers together thus enabling the region to reach its full potential in port and rail efficiency and increase the throughput of cargo and passengers alike.

There is no better time than now to put the limelight on Mozambique and neighbouring countries to discuss opportunities in the sector at the upcoming Mozambique Ports & Rail Evolution, taking place in Maputo in May 2019.

What to expect

The first annual Mozambique Ports & Rail Evolution will be the meeting place for transport professionals from across the region to get together and talk about the development of transport infrastructure connecting Mozambique and neighbouring countries.
