IMMINGHAM, ENGLAND — Viterra Ltd. and Associated British Ports (ABP) have completed construction on a £10 million ($12.9 million) warehouse at the Immingham Humber International Terminal (HIT), supporting Viterra’s growing need for efficient and reliable storage for a variety of imported commodities.
The project brings total storage capacity to approximately 75,000 tonnes. The companies said the warehouse is located next to deep-water berths and will support import and export operations and accommodate vessels of up to 80,000 tonnes.
Construction of the warehouse began in September 2024.
Rotterdam, The Netherlands-based Viterra renewed its relationship with ABP in April 2022 with the opening of a new 35,000-tonne storage facility on the Humber International Terminal.
The Port of Immingham is situated in north Lincolnshire on the North Sea and is the largest port in the United Kingdom by tonnage volume, ABP said, supporting import and export supply chains. ABP said it has invested significantly in grain handling operations across the group to maintain customer demand. This has included purchasing new cranes, refurbishing existing cranes and investing in landside equipment.
