The achievement of this objective led us to use qualitative tools, notably the interview guide. The sample of this study has confirmed the favourable impact of this port complex on the territorial attractiveness of the region, while highlighting the conditions related in particular to fiscal advantages, to the formalization of the informal sector and to the promotion of the territorial offer. This trial took place in a pandemic situation (COVID19) negatively affecting the duration of the interviews with the interviewees.
