Alexandria and Safaga Customs Goods Auction Raises EGP 27 Million

An auction of goods held by customs in Alexandria and Safaga generated EGP 27 million at a session on October 7.

The sale was part of efforts to implement a presidential directive to dispose of stagnant and abandoned goods at Egyptian ports.

The directive covers ports nationwide, with daily monitoring of the status of containers and abandoned stock held in warehouses and storage yards.

The Alexandria and Safaga auction represents a step in that wider clearance effort, aimed at addressing goods left idle at port facilities.
