Summa Group plans to focus on the development of its existing port assets and is not planning acquisitions, Summa president Alexander Vinokurov said in an interview with Vedomosti published on Monday.
"I don't currently see a large number of assets suitable for acquisition in the port sector, but I do see many opportunities for development. Before buying something, we will actively develop the ports where we already have a presence, expanding existing terminals and building new ones," Vinokurov said.
He said there was "limitless" potential for organic growth at existing port assets.
"There are also new projects that we will develop: the Vostochny port and Zarubino port in the Far East," Vinokurov said.
He said Summa's management saw the group as an "international company with Russian residency."

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
