Antwerp looks for concessionaire

Despite the global pressure on the breakbulk trade, the port of Antwerp plans to push this segment. The Churchill Dock, located in the middle of the Belgian port, is set to become a fully-fledged ‘breakbulk dock’.

On the south side of this dock, a water-linked concession is due for release, with the Port Authority planning to develop general cargo activities there.

This concession in question, located in the middle of existing breakbulk activities, is 150,000 sqm in size with multi-modal accessibility. Numerous logistics players are already located on the spot. Currently, the port of Antwerp is able to ship almost 9 million t of conventional breakbulk every year. (cd)
