London 16/01/2015 - Pacorini Metals has signed a contract with the aluminium producer Hydro to be its new service provider, it said.
As of the start of this year, the contract covers the stevedoring, warehousing and freight forwarding of the Hydro products from the plants in Sunndal, Husnes and Karmoy destined for the European markets as well as a variety of northbound cargo coming from Europe and abroad to be exported to Norway, it added.
Pacorini Metals will continue with and develop its long-standing relationship with Broekman Distriport, which will handle stevedoring activities in Rotterdam.
"The contract strengthens our position in physical distribution via the port of Rotterdam and is a natural evolution of our growth into broader logistics services globally," Simon Yntema of Pacorini Metals said.
