Benin Compact - Access to Markets

Summary: MCC’s $301.8 million Benin Compact (2006-2011) funded the $188.7 million Access to Markets Project. The project aimed to reduce ship waiting time, streamline customs clearance, improve user satisfaction, and reduce the average duration of the stay of trucks within the Port of Cotonou. The project was based on the theory that the improved physical infrastructure would lead to increased collateral investments and private sector activity, ultimately stimulating economic growth and reducing poverty.
