The Turkey Wealth Fund (TVF) announced that the transfer of İzmir Port’s ownership was finalized on 1 August 2026. The port will remain under TVF ownership, with no concession or privilege transferred.

Alport, an international logistics operator, will manage the cargo terminal while the passenger terminal will follow a separate operating model. A phased modernization program will upgrade existing infrastructure, introduce sustainable practices, and bring the facility up to international standards. The upgrades aim to boost the port’s competitiveness, strengthen İzmir’s logistics network, and contribute to the regional economy without interrupting current cargo operations.
