The ZAL Port is growing and in the next four years will have invested 200 million euros to develop 450,000 sqm of logistics warehouses, all of the land that now has available. Most of this soil is in a new area of the ZAL Port - Ciutat, located at the intersection of the street A and the street 2, in Zona Franca of Barcelona.

Since the beginning of this month of July, the ZAL Port has 52,000 sqm news of logistics warehouses.

The decision of Carrefour, based in ZAL Port (Prat) since 2009, to build an additional warehouse destined entirely to their cold product operation is proof that this new phase has already arrived.

The ZAL Port, a logistic model in the Mediterranean, also stands out in the industry for its actions aimed at enhancing sustainability and caring for the environment.
