the market share in Angola for merchandise trans-
portation. Moreover, they provide an exclusive ser-
vice in terms of forwarding, with a special delivery
service to the client, who normally receives the cargo
at the ramp.
Grimaldi Angola is ready to make new investments
in the field, waiting the government to work on the
necessary infrastructures in new ports at the North
of Luanda. As this should be effective on a medium
term, Grimaldi Angola estimates the next 5 years
to be prosperous, with an active economy even if
somehow would be direct or indirectly influenced by
the petrol sector. New opportunities are expected to
appear, particularly in the industrial and agricultural
sectors.
“Angola is a country with lots of opportunities, inves-
tors should focus in. Long term investments help the
community and are the most profitable.”
