Ice-cold combination in Massachusetts
It’s a Massachusetts deal. Ice Cube Cold Storage & Logistics, based in Fall River MA (USA), has finalised the acquisition of the Main Terminal Division of Maritime International, from New Bedford MA (USA).
The newly-named Ice Cube Cold Storage & Logistics Maritime Terminal is an extension of Ice Cube’s activities, enabling it to offer its services across New England.
The key drivers in the acquisition were the Main Terminal Division’s location in the leading US fishing port, and its capacity to provide rail car and vessel offloading.
The Maritime Terminal will be transformed by adding more frozen and refrigerated storage space, amongst other measures. The terminal will also provide more logistics solutions on the waterfront through the company's logistics division. (sh)
