The terminal’s annual handling capacity will reach up to 200,000 TEU, strengthening PTC Holding’s presence in the Eurasian freight market.

The Terminal Creates Jobs and Attracts Investment

Fifty employees currently work at the terminal, and the company plans to expand the team to 120 by the end of 2025, prioritizing local hires.

The $31.5 million project is funded through the Georgian subsidiary of Halyk Bank, a branch of Kazakhstan’s National Bank.

Construction began in August 2023 and was completed on schedule, demonstrating the project’s effective planning and execution.
