HM the King inaugurates storage and processing terminal for cars transiting Casablanca port

PERSISMA, Casablanca – HM King Mohammed VI inaugurated, on Thursday, a storage and processing terminal for cars transiting the Casablanca port, worth 168 million dirhams.

The facility will enhance the capacities of the car industry to back up the importation and exportation of new cars through the port of Casablanca , and relieve the pressure on the said port.

The terminal, meant to reinforce the sector’s competitiveness and boost the region’s economic development, has a storing capacity of 5,000 vehicles. It offers value-added services (touch-ups, paints, washing…), in addition to a car traffic processing in conformity with international standards of security, deadline and losses.

The terminal has a high-performance car information, management and locating system that will benefit mostly car dealers. The project will play a pivotal role in carrying out the motor industry’s development plan, an integral part of the National Pact for Industrial Emergence that was launched in December 2005.
