About us
Mariner Adriatic, a
Hili
Company
subsidiary, has taken over the management and operation of Durres Container Terminal in
Albania.
The container terminal handles over 90% of Albania’s container traffic. It is also well
placed to serve its landlocked hinterland, including Kosovo, Serbia and North Macedonia.
Road connectivity is being enhanced with infrastructural investments decreasing trucking
distances, whilst special customs arrangements are being made with neighbouring
countries
allowing for the completion of customs procedures in the Port of Durres. The contract
has
been awarded following an international tender process.
Hili Company’s terminals and logistics segment, Mariner, also owns Baltic Container
Terminal, which holds the concession for the leading container terminal in Riga, Latvia,
and
is a 50% partner in Terminal Intermodale Venezia with Mediterranean Shipping Company,
which
it operates in Venice, Italy.
“We are delighted to have been awarded the management and operation of Durres Container
Terminal. This represents an important step in our group’s development and demonstrates
further our standing as an international container terminal operator,” Edward Hili,
Chief
Executive Officer of Hili Company, said.
“Moreover, we are very pleased by the trust being placed in us by the Albanian
authorities
in operating what is a key asset for the country. We are confident with the plan we have
in
place to take the operation forward and will be giving it the full focus and attention
which
it deserves.”
