Malta Freeport Terminals is presently amongst the leaders in the Mediterranean transhipment scenario. The high volume of containers being handled is a result of the Freeport's track record and the positive international recognition which the Company enjoys with global carriers as being a reliable and credible port.

The Freeport's increasing attractiveness is founded on the right configuration of unparalleled location in the centre of the Mediterranean, outstanding facilities dedicated to transhipment, pristine handling equipment, advanced technology, highly skilled and enterprising personnel, unmatched quality service, as well as an efficacious security system which ensures that its clients’ demands are met efficaciously. Other crucial factors include extensive world-wide regular network connections, high performance levels and cost-effectiveness, ease of access to markets with minimal diversion distance, easy port accessibility, safe manoeuvrability of vessels and all-year favourable weather conditions.

Malta Freeport Terminals is currently equipped with twenty-three Quayside Cranes, various Yard Cranes and ancillary yard equipment. The various developments being undertaken by the Company will enable the Freeport to accommodate larger vessels in view of the developments taking place within the containerisation industry towards ever larger and cost-effective ships whilst also attaining faster vessel turnaround times. Indeed Malta Freeport Terminals will be increasing its quay length on both Terminals from the present operational length of 2 kilometres to over 3 kilometres and the total area to 790,000 square metres.
