About This Seaport
Some 7 million TEU of annual capacity make Bur Sa'id (Port Said) one of the Mediterranean's heavyweight transshipment gateways, right at the northern mouth of the Suez Canal. The port pairs an older West harbour beside the city — general cargo, RoRo and canal-support traffic — with the modern East Port Said complex across the water. There, APM Terminals runs the Suez Canal Container Terminal (SCCT), whose capacity climbed to around 7 million TEU after a USD 500 million expansion. The World Bank and S&P Global ranked SCCT among the world's most efficient container terminals in 2024, reflecting its core role in Asia–Europe transshipment. Boxes split between Egyptian import-export cargo, cleared through customs for Cairo and the Nile Delta by road and rail, and relay volume that never formally enters the country. Dedicated bulk and tanker parcels tend to use neighbouring ports rather than Port Said. For container and transshipment alternatives, shippers look to Damietta and Alexandria along the same Egyptian coast.
