Deputy Prime Minister of Kazakhstan Serik Zhumangarin recently held a meeting with the founder and president of the Iranian shipping company Golden Line, Ali Akbar Ehsani.
The private company, which specializes in the transit and export of goods, provides services for container loading and unloading, storage, and other types of transport and logistics services in the Iranian port of Caspian.
Currently, Golden Line is looking to expand its services for the export and transit of various cargoes from Kazakhstan and other countries in Central Asia, Russia, and Azerbaijan to the ports of the Persian Gulf, Indian Ocean, as well as Asian and African countries.
Ali Akbar Ehsani highlighted that the Iranian port on the Caspian Sea, where the company's main loading and unloading facilities and vessels are located, has recently been connected to the Iranian railway network.
This new development will facilitate direct rail communication between the ports of the Caspian and the Persian Gulf. Ehsani also proposed a collaboration with Kazakhstan to construct a terminal in the port of Bandar Abbas.
“We have 25 hectares of container area at our disposal in the port of Bandar Abbas. We are also ready to allocate another 30 hectares in a convenient location for the Kazakh terminal in the port and invest in its construction. We will be able to organize direct deliveries of cargo to the port of Caspian,” said Ali Akbar Ehsani.
Following the meeting, Serik Zhumangarin invited the management of Golden Line to participate in the first international transport and logistics forum “North-South,” scheduled to take place on July 20th in Aktau. This event will provide an opportunity for Golden Line to meet and discuss the project with potential Kazakh partners.
