For that, its digital innovation strategy plays a main role. One of the pillars of this strategy lies in the deployment of a digital platform capable of coordinating optimally, holistically, and synchronously the port-logistic operations of cargo across the multimodal logistic node of Algeciras Port, maximising value creation.

Partners who continue to address the future enhancement and development of the Digital Platform through the application of emerging technologies in the sector.
