THE initial phase of constructing a new container terminal in the Ukrainian city of Vinnytsia has been completed, reports Rotterdam's WorldCargo News.
The newly completed Container Terminal Vinnytsia (CTV), built with an investment of about US$15 million, features a rail link to Gdansk and can handle up to 30,000 TEU annually.
Operated by Lemtras Group, the terminal includes a container yard with a capacity of up to 2,000 TEU and a 3,500 sqm warehouse, spanning eight hectares.
'We are creating new opportunities, as the emergence of such a terminal in the region opens up access to global logistics for cargo owners, both large and small. This means that exporters and importers no longer depend on the size of the shipment or the influence of global trading companies,' says CTV CEO Dmytro Balaba.
'The opening of the Container Terminal Vinnytsia is an important step for the further economic development of the region.'
Earlier, the terminal received its first train from Poland, carrying over 60 TEU as part of a regular service to Gdansk. There is already an option to send containers to Odesa, with potential future connections to Germany, Belgium, France, Italy, and the Netherlands being considered.
