The Port Authority of Kribi (PAK) is taking part in the 5th Tripartite Cameroon–Chad–Central African Republic Forum currently being held in N’Djamena. This strategic gathering brings together public authorities, shippers, and logistics stakeholders to discuss ways to improve corridor efficiency and strengthen subregional trade.
During the opening ceremony, the Ministers of Transport of Cameroon, Chad, and the Central African Republic emphasized the importance of sustained dialogue and coordinated action to enhance trade facilitation and logistics performance across the corridor.
At the forum, PAK presented the Port of Kribi’s key strengths, including modern infrastructure, the ability to accommodate large vessels, continuous reductions in cargo processing times, ongoing digitalization of procedures, and the development of the Kribi Port Industrial Zone (KPIZ).

Technical workshops are continuing, with participants working to finalize recommendations aimed at improving corridor fluidity, reducing logistics costs, and enhancing regional competitiveness.
