Belgium: Cargill’s malt business to build new logistics platform in Antwerp
Cargill’s malt business announced on March 30 a partnership with Zuidnatie, a Belgian logistics service provider, to build a new logistics platform in the port of Antwerp. Set to open in August 2018, it will offer transshipment facilities and storage for up to 300,000 metric tons (MT) of barley and malt.
Cargill’s malt business has a global footprint with 18 malting facilities (five in Europe) that connect all of the main barley growing regions of the world. This logistics platform will lift the export capabilities out of Europe to the next level, the company said.
“We are very enthusiastic about this potential and believe we could reach a 30 percent increase of our water transport to our European plants,” says Sabine Sagaert, Global Managing Director Malt at Cargill.
