Today (PIF) that it has the task to in transit control the sanitary state of food of animal origin in the French marine port of call. In order to realize the new structure Grand the Port Maritime de Marseille (GPMM) has invested beyond 300 thousand euros.
The French Harbour Authority has evidenced that the PIF is indispensable for the maintenance of the current traffic, that container medium sees the control of beyond 200 per year, and above all for its development. "Without the Point of Inspection Borderer - the general manager of the GPMM, Jean-Claude Terrier has explained - the port is losing a part of the traffic, while with the PIF it is lined up to fight beside the shippers in order to earn some".
In last the five years the port of Marseilles had enjoyed an exception, which reached now expiration, that it allowed with the port of call to use a Point of Inspection Borderer that is situated to Marseilles, but to out of the harbour town-walls. Such situation involved also an economic burden of various tens of euro at the expense of the destined shippers who were forced to transport the container to the control to out of the port.
The new Point of Inspection Borderer is situated on the Léon Gouret pier, in the harbour area of Marseilles (East Basin). The French port has another PIF that is localized near the terminals of the harbour area of Fos (Basin the West).
