We are pleased to advise that the port of Casablanca has reoponed.
For safety reasons, all vessel movements were suspended last week after 85 containers on a vessel bound for Barcelona fell overboard in the port entrance on Wednesday night.

Tunisia: Stevedore Strike in Gabes
In the Tunisian port of Gabes, the stevedores employed by STAM have announced a full 3-day strike from 25-27 January included.
Industrial action had already started last week when the stevedores stopped nocturnal cargo operations.
Since the government refused to meet all of their demands, they are now retaliating with an all-out strike.
Gabes’ alternative private stevedoring company, GMGA, is continuing to work normally.
