Port of Antwerp-Bruges begins tendering process for Maritime Logistics Zone expansion

Port of Antwerp-Bruges proceeds with the development of the Maritime Logistics Zone in Zeebrugge.

Under the slogan “Develop your project at Europe’s gateway”, the Belgian port is initiating a tendering process for a site of 85,000 square metres in a strategically located area.

“This unique opportunity is aimed at both domestic and international investors involved in the distribution or logistics of fast-moving goods,” commented a port official.

Port of Antwerp-Bruges is expanding the Maritime Logistics Zone in phases, aiming to generate additional cargo for the terminals in the outer port and provide space for businesses in a forward-looking environment. The current tender for the development of the site focuses on logistics projects that align with deep-sea and short-sea activities.

This is an indicative plan. The Maritime Logistics Zone will be developed in phases and in a market-driven way. Port of Antwerp-Bruges reserves the right, within the framework of this tendering process, to adjust the proposed layout of the Maritime Logistics Zone in order to achieve an optimal infill.

According to the port’s statement, the Maritime Logistics Zone offers opportunities for companies active in:

  • Cold chain: Its location reduces lead times, enabling cold chain goods to be transported efficiently and reliably.
  • Consumer goods: The proximity to deep-sea and short-sea platforms facilitates both intercontinental supply chains and regional distribution.
  • High and heavy: The presence of specialised terminal facilities for oversized and heavy cargo ensures smooth handling and transportation.

The tendering process began on 27 February and will close on 9 May. Interested parties can get more information and register at https://www.portofantwerpbruges.com/en/maritime-logistics-zone.
