Turkish construction firms Çetin Group and Kozuva will begin building
the new Turkish sponsored air terminal at Mogadishu's Aden Abdulle
International Airport, following the signing of a deal in late January.
The result of negotiations initiated by the Turkish
Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Finance and their Somali
counterparts, the new USD10million dollar facility will replace the
current terminal and will handle 5'000 passengers per day (1.8million
per annum) and 15 aircraft simultaneously (60 movements per day).
The project will be realized under a Build-Operate-Transfer model backed by Favori LLC, a consortium of Turkish construction firms Çetin Group and Kozuva with USD3million capital,
that will provide for the construction and subsequent management
(including security) at the future terminal. The contract is set to last
for a combined duration of 20 years, but will be reviewed after 10, as
Somali law does not permit concessions to be held for periods greater
than 10 years.
