The Moroccan group Tanger withrecognized for having erected one of the largest port complexes in Africa, takes a new stage by establishing itself in West Africa. Its subsidiary Tanger with engineering comes from Sign a strategic partnership with Liberia to modernize the terminals of Monrovia and Buchanan. This expansion is based on a solid experience in port engineering, acquired over the years thanks to projects carried out in Morocco and internationally. The model developed by Tangier Med is based on a controlled articulation between infrastructure, intelligent logistics and integrated services, which allowed the Moroccan port to become a central link in exchanges between Europe, Africa and Asia.
Strong of this expertise, Tangier Med Engineering is perceived today as a technical platform capable of supporting complex transformations. The company is not limited to the design of infrastructure, but also supports the implementation of digital and ecological solutions adapted to the specific needs of each partner.
Liberia engages in a complete overhaul of its ports
The Liberian project aims to deeply transform the country’s logistical and port capacities. It is not simply a question of rehabilitating the existing structures, but of reimagining the entire maritime exchange system. Six priority axes have been defined: Renovation of container terminals, modernization of quays, repair of warehouses, integration of sustainable energy solutions, introduction of connected logistics platforms and strengthening security systems. The stated objective is clear: Make ports of Monrovia and Buchanan of infrastructure aligned with international standards in terms of goods processing and fluidity of operations.
This engaging partnership marks a change of scale for Liberian logistics, in a context where port strangulation slows down imports, weigh down costs and hamper the competitiveness of local businesses. The arrival of Tangier Med Engineering gives an ancient desire to an ancient desire to modernize the country’s maritime entry points, often described as dilapidated or unsuitable for current requirements.
Economic issues and logistical sovereignty
Beyond technical considerations, the project has a strategic dimension for Liberia. Improving port efficiency means reducing transit times, optimizing supply chains, and strengthening the attraction capacity of new investors. This modernization is presented as a lever to create stable jobs, consolidate customs recipes, and limit logistical dependence to neighboring countries.
The contract signed with Tangier Med Engineering is thus part of a deliberate effort of economic repositioning. He reflects a political awareness: Mastering port infrastructure is no longer perceived as a simple technical imperative, but as a structuring element of economic sovereignty. The Moroccan intervention, as an African actor with proven know-how, illustrates a dynamic of South-South cooperation carried by performance logics more than assistance.
This project could also become a reference for other states in the region faced with similar challenges, which seek to rely on continent partners to stimulate their logistical transformation. By being involved directly in the modernization of Liberal ports, Tanger with It is not content to export a model: it actively participates in the reconfiguration of trade flows in West Africa.
