GREAT YARMOUTH GRAIN TERMINAL TAKES SHAPE
Monday 22 March 2010
Gleadell Agriculture’s Great Yarmouth Grain Terminal is taking shape as the steelworks for the 18,000 tonnes flat store emerge on the skyline alongside the port’s two huge gantry cranes.
“Construction is now well on track despite the unusually severe winter,” says Trevor Gates, Gleadell’s East Anglian Regional Manager. “We can now look forward to completion, ready for harvest, when we will provide an integrated operation on the site with a state of the art dryer, 18,000 tonnes of flat storage and a mobile shiploader capable of loading vessels up to 25,000 tonnes. Our grain terminal will give farmers in East Anglia and beyond a world-class facility without spending a penny of their own money, with no capital tied up, and without the double haulage costs incurred in all inland central stores as it is an end user destination."
