This Friday, 10 April 2026, The Port Authority of Douala (PAD) and Douala Terre-Port have officially sealed a landmark partnership agreement , aimed at the comprehensive rehabilitation and modernisation of the Regional Terminal, widely known as the BOSCAM Quay.
Designed as a high-impact Public-Private Partnership (PPP), this convention represents a major step forward in the modernisation of national port infrastructure.
In his official address, Danny Khoury, CEO of Khoury Contracting Company, hailed the agreement as a powerful testament to the effectiveness of win-win partnerships. He expressed his gratitude to Mr Cyrus Ngo’o, General Manager of PAD, emphasising that this project is more than just a renovation, it is a total transformation. The terminal is set to become a benchmark for sustainable development, featuring state-of-the-art equipment and high-performance infrastructure including:
• an estimated 89.65 billion FCFA, supplemented by optional investments of 36.683 billion FCFA.
• the rehabilitation of the current site and the creation of a massive new 20-hectare platform.
• Plans for a new 700-meter quay in the optional investment phase.
• A 30-year concession period with a projected return rate of 12.20%, ensuring long-term stability and profitability for both parties.
Beyond the structural upgrades, the partnership is a catalyst for employment, with the creation of 500 direct and indirect jobs expected to stimulate the local economy.
This ambitious project reaffirms PAD’s commitment to positioning the Port of Douala-Bonaberi as a modern, efficient, and competitive regional hub.
