First-Stage Land Usage Permit for APM Terminals Poti

Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development approves for the first-stage land usage permit for APM Terminal Poti.

"However, this is just the beginning of the process. The next (second) stage of the process will include an Environmental Impact Study and detailed project documentation which will also require the close cooperation of the Government to assure that the timeline for this project stays on schedule. Today we can see that the world-wide pandemic can cause delays in mobilizing personnel and equipment and therefore, we must work together as expeditiously as possible," the company writes. 

“APM Terminals Poti - Poti Sea Port Corporation is confident that, with the continued support and cooperation of the Georgian Government, this project will be a success and an example of the kind of partnership that will attract additional international investments to Georgia in the near future,” remarked Keld Mosgaard Christensen, Managing Director of APM Terminals - Poti Sea Port Corporation.

  
Finally, upon completion of the second stage, we will move to the third (final) stage of the permit process, where it will be even more critical for the Government to remain proactive and constructively engaged in finding an optimal solution for access to the port during the construction and eventual operational stage for the benefit of the logistics providers and the overall supply chain. This will guarantee the success of this major infrastructure investment.
