About This Seaport
Beirut handled around 583,000 TEU between January and August 2025, including a record 100,000 TEU in July, a marked rebound for Lebanon's principal import gateway (LB BEY). CMA Terminals, a CMA CGM subsidiary, has run the Beirut Container Terminal since 2022, operating seven berths with capacity near 1.5 million TEU and expansion plans toward 2.1 million. Volumes still trail the 1.2 million TEU handled in 2019, before the catastrophic 2020 port explosion. The port carries consumer goods, foodstuffs, building materials and project equipment for the Lebanese market. A French-led reconstruction plan targets the quays and port layout but excludes the container terminal itself. Customs clearance runs through the Lebanese customs authority; forwarders should budget for longer processing and a volatile operating environment. Hinterland haulage is exclusively by road, as Lebanon has no working freight rail. For risk diversification, Tripoli (Lebanon) or ports in Cyprus and Mersin serve as alternatives.
