Transforming the Port-Louis Harbour

This budget has under the high investment and high employment section gathered all the key ingredients to instill a new dynamism for boosting economic growth. The harbour of Port-Louis will be called to play a crucial role in transforming the macroeconomic fundamentals of the country, thus repositioning Port Louis as an international and efficient conduit for international trade.

The coastline of the port will be from Grand River North West to Baie du Tombeau. This development is line with the strategic position of Mauritius in the South-South trade route and will capture the outlying opportunities resulting from vessel traffic in the Indian Ocean which increased by 400% during the last two decade.
