Port of Djibouti S.APort of Djibouti S.APORT OF DJIBOUTI HISTORICThe Port of Djibouti S.A. is located at the southernentrance to the Red Sea, at the intersection of majorinternational shipping lanes connecting Asia, Africaand Europe.The port is a minimal deviation from the principalEast-West trade route and providesa secure regionalhub for transshipment and relay of goods.Since 1998, the port handled 100% of Ethiopia’s maritimetraffic, which moves to and from Addis Ababa bytruck and rail.To accommodate this important business, the Port hasmade an additional 20 ha of dry yard area available.The port of Djibouti is ideally located to serve the COMESAmarket, linking 19 countries and 380 million people.Djibouti as a main maritime passage and a maintrading route between East and West stretches backsince 3500 years, the time of maritime explorationsof the Red Sea.A strategic meeting point between two worlds (Africaand Asia) the Red Sea was a place of contact andpassage used by the Egyptians, the Phoenicians, thePtolemaists, the Romans, the Greeks, the Byzantine,the Arabs, and then by the Europeans in search ofthe spices route. Its apogee came with the openingof Suez Canal.The port evolved out of Ethiopia’s search for amaritime outlet to its railway line, and Djibouti’scoastline provided both easy access and shelteredanchorage. Work on the railway began in 1897, as didthe initial construction of the port. Once the line wascompleted, in 1917, the port grew rapidly.Between 1960 and 1970, port activity was developed aspart of an international maritime exchange network.The Red Sea had become one of the busiest shippinglanes in the world and Djibouti found itself actingas its service station. Bunkering traffic quadrupledin the ten years from 1954, reaching a peak of 1.8million tons in 1965.Djibouti’s strategic location enabled the portauthorities to successfully rise to the challenge ofturning the port into a regional hub for the Red Seaand Indian Ocean, and in a wider context the threecontinents of Europe, Africa and Asia.Containerization was the defining concept behindthis new period of development and Djibouti’s firstmodern container terminal began operations inFebruary 1985.Starting from June 2000, the Port of Djibouti signeda 10-years management contract with DP Worldwith at end in June 2011. From July 2011 the Port ofDjibouti has undergone an organizational changesthough a partnership with China Merchants HoldingsInternational in December 2012.Commitment to Excellence23 Commitment to Excellence
