About Us
Port Said Public Free Zone was established by a resolution of the
Prime Minister dated 02/07/1975 on 800 thousand m2 in Port Said,
adjacent to Port Said Port overlooking the Suez Canal, which is
separated by only a street with width of 50 m.
Site Benefits
The Zone is characterized by a privileged location, a quarterback to
Port Said Port on the Mediterranean, which is the northern gateway
of the most important maritime fairway (Suez Canal) and connects the
East with the West on the International Transport and Trade Road; as
well as its distance from Port Said Airport, 6 km west of Port Said. This
makes the Zone a center and a forum to service the trade and export
movement, both to and from the Gulf States, Southeast Asia, and
Eastern and Southern African countries across the Suez Canal and the
Red Sea, or to and from EU Countries and the Americas across the
Mediterranean. Furthermore, the Zone connects to all Egyptian ports
by a network of highways, where it connects to the ports of Damietta
and Alexandria across the International Coastal Road, and connects to
the Suez Port, which is located about 180 km southward, across the
highway to the Suez Canal cities.
