Port Attracts Cargoes

Mormugao Port Trust has taken steps to attract cargoes to ramp up its revenue, which took a hit following the decline in iron ore export. Over 80 per cent of the total traffic at the port consisted of iron ore export cargo till the mining ban in Goa affected the shipment of the raw material. In order to attract other cargoes, the port authority is holding trade meets in various parts of Karnataka, such as Hubli and Belgaum. Contact: Mormugao Port Trust. Tel: 0832-2521 100.
