The Board of Directors of the Port Authority of Valencia has granted an administrative concession to Valencia Terminal Europa (owned by the Grimaldi Group) for a terminal in the Port of Sagunto dedicated to vehicles and RoRo cargo. The new terminal represents an investment of EUR 3.9 million and further consolidates Sagunto as an automotive hub.

The concession has been granted for a period of 10 years and will be located at Central Quay 2 and South Quay 2.

Recently, the Grimaldi Group and its controlled company Trasmed GLE launched a new Motorway of the Seas service between Spain and Italy, linking the ports of Sagunto, Palma de Mallorca and Salerno. A RoRo maritime bridge is also active between Sagunto and Cagliari.

By 2026 Newsletter week 11

The Lavrio Port Authority (OLL S.A.) will sign a contract for the supply and installation of floating breakwaters and piers, following approval by the Greek Court of Audit. The project, prepared over five years, is expected to be completed in 2026.

Lavrio strengthened its position in the cruise market in 2025, targeting homeporting for small and medium-sized luxury cruise ships. Cruise bookings for 2026 already exceed 250 calls, up from 156 in 2025.

The port was also the second most profitable state-owned port in Greece in 2025. In parallel, it coordinates an EU-funded consortium preparing the ports of Lavrio, Corfu, Rafina and Kavala for shore power (cold ironing) infrastructure by 2030.
