Africa-Press – Mozambique. A group of Chinese investors wants to build two new terminals at the port of Beira, in Sofala province, to increase the port’s capacity to handle goods, Radio Mozambique reports.
The new terminals could be built on Quays Eleven and Thirteen of the port, and the project for their implementation is already in the possession of the Mozambican authorities.
