Key Points:
- Global Ports Holding Plc ("GPH" or "Group"), the world's largest independent cruise port operator, is pleased to announce that following a period of exclusive negotiations it has entered into a conditional sale and purchase agreement to sell Ortadou Antalya Liman Iletmeleri ("Port Akdeniz") to QTerminals W.L.L.
- Port Akdeniz, the Group's largest commercial port concession, operates Port Akdeniz-Antalya in Turkey, under a concession agreement which runs until August 2028.
- This conditional agreement follows the Strategic Review announced by the board on the 5 July 2019 and GPH's announcement on the 11 March 2020 that it had entered into exclusive negotiations over the sale of Port Akdeniz.
- However, as GPH continues to pursue growth in the exciting cruise port market, it is now time for the stewardship of Port Akdeniz to pass to an organisation that is primarily focused on the Commercial port market.
