Objective
“This is a free zone equipped with port logistics infrastructure, commonly known as a dry port, supported by an investor to the tune of more than 45 billion CFA francs, in partnership with Italian operators," said Ngogom Mayor Papa Momar Ngom during a meeting with local stakeholders.
Description
Named Pôle aéré de stockage spécialisé et des entreprises (PASSE), the facility will be a modern free zone with full customs authorization. Promoters say it will help decongest the Port of Dakar and re-establish Senegal’s logistics position in regional trade, particularly with landlocked Mali.
