About Oran
Oran serves western Algeria and is the natural entry point for cargo bound for the Oran and Sidi Bel Abbès industrial areas, where routing through Algiers would add several hundred kilometres of road. It handles containers alongside general and bulk cargo. Sailing frequency is lower than at Algiers, so schedule usually decides between them.
First Base Freight handles both import and export cargo through Oran — inbound from any country and outbound to any country. Indicative sea transit on our the UK lane is 8–13 days; transit on any other routing is confirmed at quote stage. For rates, container options and the wider Algeria lane, including air freight and customs clearance, see the country page — or request a quote for this port.
