Move to strengthen Global Supply Chains and drive sustainable growth
AD Ports Group has announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Critical Minerals Forum (CMF) to establish a strategic partnership aimed at strengthening global critical minerals supply chains.
This collaboration leverages AD Ports Group’s extensive network of operational ports, terminals, and shipping routes to support the Forum’s mission of expanding critical mineral supply chains and trade.
The partnership aligns with AD Ports Group’s overarching goal of enabling trade and driving global economic growth, particularly as demand for critical minerals such as graphite, cobalt, manganese, nickel, and lithium is projected to increase significantly to support decarbonization and the production of electric vehicles.

“This collaboration underscores our commitment to enabling trade and driving global economic growth, while contributing to the transition to a greener future,” commented Captain Mohamed Juma Al Shamisi, Managing Director and CEO, AD Ports Group.
“This partnership marks a significant step forward in ensuring the resilience and diversification of critical minerals supply chains globally,” remarked Rob Strayer, President, Critical Minerals Forum.
The Critical Minerals Forum is dedicated to fostering resilient and diversified supply chains by uniting key stakeholders, including miners, processors, manufacturers, investors, and the public sector, while promoting transparency in pricing, cost structures, and supply-demand projections, a press note concluded.
