Limassol port serves as a model for what Cyprus can achieve as it is one of the largest projects of the island, President Nicos Anastasiades said on Thursday during the inauguration ceremony of the new passenger terminal.
Dubai’s DP World was awarded a 25-year concession to exclusively operate the multi-purpose terminal in April 2016 and began operations 15 months ago.
Since then over 91,000 passengers were served and 11 cruise lines berthed 85 ships last year.
This marked “a new page in the history of the Cypriot economy” Anastasiades said and “a new era for the Limassol Port and the tourist and maritime industry at large.”
