Batumi International Container Terminal LLC (BICT) disseminates news, which BM.GE offers unchanged:
“Batumi International Container Terminal LLC (BICT), which has been operating in Batumi since 2008, has been exceptionally busy yet continues to roll out measures and programs that will ensure the delivery of its high standards of service.
Throughout the pandemic and in the face of subsequent challenging market conditions, BICT has maintained its high standards of service when many other terminals in the region have encountered congestion.
Thanks to the additional investments made by BICT, the terminal is ready to handle the current spike in traffic. The operating terminal yard was expanded with an additional 6 hectares including an off-dock terminal with two rail spurs. These not only allow the terminal to handle the recent increase in cargo volumes transported both by land and rail, these also now will enable the terminal to handle more container stripping and stuffing related to increased trade volumes through the Middle Corridor.
BICT has also successfully implemented a state-of-art planning system for the container yard, which will further boost terminal handling operations. In addition, BICT has acquired additional units of brand-new heavy lift port equipment to further improve its operation and provide even faster and more efficient service to its valuable customers. With the new rolled out capacity expansion including a new storage yard area, additional handling equipment and more personnel, BICT is more than capable to rapidly expedite cargo clearance.
BICT remains committed to further investments with the goal of simplifying and expediting operations, constantly improving efficiency, and maintaining high service levels.
BICT is a subsidiary of International Container Terminal Services, Inc., the largest, independent, terminal operator across six continents”, - the statement reads.
