African Ports Poised for Expansion: What It Means for Global Supply Chains

Africa’s port infrastructure is undergoing a major transformation. From Lekki Deep Sea Port in Nigeria to the expansion of Tema and Takoradi ports in Ghana, billions are being invested in reshaping Africa’s trade gateways.

These upgrades are not just regional milestones—they are global pivot points. As trade flows diversify away from Asia-centric routes and companies seek alternative sourcing hubs, African ports are being groomed as key transshipment, processing, and logistics centers.
