On 9 July 2024, the groundbreaking ceremony for Hutchison Ports Sokhna (Red Sea Containers Terminal S.A.E.) was held at Sokhna Port with a handling capacity of 1.7 million TEU. The event was attended by Clemence Cheng, Managing Director of Hutchison Ports - Europe; EDECS, the civil construction company and representatives from CMA Terminals and COSCO SHIPPING Ports.
