Loading ports — 7 Egyptian deep-water gateways
Egypt Globe Group loads cargo from 7 deep-water Egyptian ports — Damietta, Alexandria, El Dekheila, Port Said, Port Said East, Ain Sokhna, Adabiya — covering bulk vessel, container, break-bulk, reefer.
Egypt Globe Group operates across all 7 of Egypt's major deep-water cargo ports. Loading port per shipment is determined by:
- Damietta — main bulk + container gateway on the Mediterranean Delta
- Alexandria + El Dekheila — historic Mediterranean port + adjacent industrial deep-water terminal
- Ain Sokhna — Red Sea / Gulf gateway south of Suez
- El Dekheila — large dry-bulk + container terminal adjacent to Alexandria
Each port page covers vessel-size capacity, draft, commodities loaded, transit times to top destinations, and operational nuances (free-trade zones, customs offices, common bottlenecks).
