APMT and Plaquemines Port announce future port collaboration

An agreement has been made between APM Terminals (APMT) and Plaquemines Port to discuss the future of the Plaquemines Port Harbour and Terminal District (PPHTD).

As part of the agreement, APMT will be considered as the future terminal operator of the facility which is in the early stages of development as a deep water, multi-modal container terminal.

Located in Louisiana on the Mississippi river just 50 miles from the Gulf of Mexico the gateway port would cater to exporters and importers who could tap into the multimodal routing options from rail, truck and barge.
