Greece launched an international public tender for the sale of a majority stake in the port of Herkalion. 

Investors can submit expressions of interest for a 67% stake in the port on the island of Crete by July 30, the state asset utilisation agency (TAIPED) announced on Monday.

Heraklion port, the busiest on Crete, serves cruise ships, ferries and freight vessels.

Greece is also selling majority stakes in the ports of Alexandroupoli and Igoumenitsa in northern and western Greece, as part of a privatisation scheme aiming to raise €1.8 billion this year.
