In the reporting period, Logistika Terminal handled over 90,000 tons of cargo at the off-dock container warehouse.
A ‘dry-port’ container terminal located in Shushary "Logistika Terminal" was built in 2008 and is now part of National Container Company’s container terminals network based in St. Petersburg and Ust-Luga.
Since April 2011, Logistika Terminal has been operating as an off-dock container facility of Big Port St. Petersburg. LT infrastructure includes container terminal, empty container depot, container freight station (CFS), vast warehousing and distribution facilities, convenient motor/railroad approach. LT was the first Russia’s terminal to start operating as “dry port”. Dry port technology gives possibility to transport containers from the sea terminal (FCT) to the off-dock facility in Shushary (LT) in bond under the simplified scheme of customs control for further customs clearance, storage and distribution.
