Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili on Wednesday met Robert Mærsk Uggla, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Danish company Maersk, to discuss cooperation and the importance of the Middle Corridor route connecting Europe with Asia.

 

The Government Administration said Garibashvili told Uggla his office was interested in ensuring “comprehensive functioning” of the Corridor and supported promotion of the transport route in international formats.

 

He highlighted the increased volume of cargo passing through Georgia’s Black Sea port of Poti, and noted the total number of containers processed in the facility had increased by 65.7 percent year-on-year in 2023.

 

The meeting, held on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, also focused on prospects of future cooperation and the performance of APM Terminals, a daughter company of Maersk that manages the Poti Port.

 

Maersk business segments include shipments, port operation, supply chain management and warehousing.
