    Arkhangelsk Region and FESCO to consider organization of container terminal in Kotlas

    The parties will also look into creation of cargo base for FESCO’s service between Vladivostok and Arkhangelsk

    Aleksandr Tsybulsky, Governor of the Arkhangelsk Region, and Andrey Severilov, Chairman of the Board of Directors, FESCO, held a meeting in Moscow and agreed to look into organization of a container terminal in Kotlas in order to boost containerization of cargoes in the region, particularly in the segment of mid-size and small-size businesses.

    According to the press release of FESCO, the parties discussed practical steps towards the development of intermodal container transportation in the Arkhangelsk Region, sea transportation via Saint-Petersburg to China and creation of a cargo base for launching of FESCO’s train service on Vladivostok-Arkhangelsk-Vladivostok route.

    Andrey Severilov says the group is ready to use its experience for providing the region’s business with logistics solutions that will open transport possibilities of the Arkhangelsk Region. According to the Governor, “the competition in this market will be beneficial for shippers and will offer additional opportunities for exporters which currently face certain problems with eastward transportation of their products.”

    The Arkhangelsk Region’s press center says that the mutual interest in the development of cooperation is based on the loading of the company’s fleet. The companies in the region produce much export-oriented products, particularly intended for the eastward direction. There are also prospects of ensuring backward loading, first of all with road construction equipment, forestry machinery and automobiles from China.

    FESCO Transportation Group is one of the leading public transportation and logistics companies in Russia with operations in ports, rail, integrated logistics and shipping business. Diversified but integrated asset portfolio enables FESCO to provide door-to-door logistics solutions and control almost all steps of the intermodal transportation value chain. FESCO controls the Commercial Port of Vladivostok, rail operators Transgarant and Dalreftrans, operator of container platforms Russkaya Troyka, dry terminal facilities in Novosibirsk, Khabarovsk and Tomsk. FESCO operates over 100,000 containers and about 10,000 container platforms. FESCO’s fleet numbers 22 vessels deployed primarily on its own sea service lines.
