- Alexandria Containers & Goods (Alexandria Container and Cargo Handling Company S.A.E.) is an Egypt-based marine terminal operator and logistics provider primarily engaged in container handling, port stevedoring, and cargo storage services. Founded in 1984 and headquartered in Alexandria, Egypt, the company operates as a key maritime logistics entity under the Maritime and Inland Transport Holding Company, serving international ocean carriers, logistics intermediaries, and commercial trading enterprises. The company manages two primary container terminals on the Mediterranean Sea: the Alexandria Container Terminal at the Port of Alexandria and the El-Dekheila Container Terminal at the Port of El-Dekheila.
The company offers a systematic suite of port operations and maritime logistics solutions organized across several core categories: container terminal handling services, including ship-to-shore vessel loading and discharge, container stevedoring, transshipment handling, roll-on/roll-off cargo support, and inland waterway feeder vessel handling; yard storage and depot management, comprising bonded container storage, empty container storage yards, hazardous and dangerous goods containment, and temperature-controlled reefer container monitoring with dedicated electrical plug-in stations; cargo freight handling services, including container stuffing and stripping, less-than-container load consolidation, break-bulk and heavy-lift cargo handling, and customs inspection zone facilitation; and value-added terminal logistics, encompassing Verified Gross Mass weighing, container cleaning and structural maintenance, electronic data interchange tracking, gate processing, and rail-linked intermodal cargo transfers.
In recent operational developments, Alexandria Containers & Goods has undertaken significant terminal modernization and capacity expansion programs across its Alexandria and El-Dekheila facilities to support ultra-large container vessels. The company has advanced berth deepening and dredging works, upgraded quay wall infrastructure, and integrated high-capacity Super Post-Panamax ship-to-shore gantry cranes and electrified rubber-tyred gantry cranes to improve vessel turnaround times and expand annual throughput capacity. Furthermore, the company has expanded its refrigerated container storage capacity to accommodate rising perishable agricultural exports and implemented advanced terminal operating systems integrated with national digital customs and trade platforms to optimize cargo dwell times and automate terminal logistics workflows.
