The Chamber of Commerce has welcomed the agreement reached by the Almeria-based company Navasa S.A (Antonio Navarro) with the Chinese group Kingenta, which will allow it to start operating in Almeria from the current facilities of the Port of Almeria. The presentation of the agreement reached between the Spanish company and the Chinese giant has counted with the participation of the President of NAVASA, Antonio Navarro, and the president of Kingenta, Wan Lianbu, accompanied by the President of the Chamber, Diego MartÃnez Cano, and backed by an outstanding representation of both the local and regional government and a delegation of executives from the Chinese group.
