Thessaloniki Port (GRS427003009) is advancing its Pier 6 expansion, which is designed to lift container capacity from 650,000 to 1.50 million TEU. Emakedonia reported the project progress on October 17, 2026, while the port's latest dated Athens close was EUR 40.50 on October 16, 2026.
Pier 6 capacity is the focus
The expansion is moving from construction activity toward a larger operating platform. Dnews reported on October 1, 2026, that eight of 21 caissons had been installed and that the container terminal is planned to reach 1.50 million TEU from 650,000.
The same report put the future quay length at 1,081 meters versus 568 meters and the operating depth at 16.8 meters versus 12.6 meters. Those figures give investors a measurable operating rationale for the long investment cycle.
What does Pier 6 change?
The answer is scale, but execution remains the central variable. The project is expected to support larger mainline vessels, while caisson installation was projected to finish within five to six months from the October 1, 2026 update.
Naftemporiki reported that first-half 2026 revenue rose 8.9 percent to EUR 58.0 million from EUR 53.3 million. Net profit after tax increased 3.5 percent to EUR 16.5 million from EUR 15.9 million, while capital expenditure reached EUR 16.0 million from EUR 5.2 million.
Three dated milestones
On September 25, 2026, Thessaloniki Port reported first-half revenue of EUR 58.0 million, up 8.9 percent year on year. On October 16, 2026, TheOpinion reported the opening of a 156-space parking facility. On October 17, 2026, the Pier 6 expansion was reported at the construction stage with a planned capacity of 1.50 million TEU.
Key dates for construction
The construction schedule points to caisson completion within five to six months from October 1, 2026, while the wider Pier 6 project is planned for completion by 2030. The next operational milestones therefore matter more than a single quarterly figure because they determine when the added capacity can contribute to revenue.
