The first facilities of our new multi-modal handling terminal have been inaugurated!
These facilities mark the completion of Phase 1 of the project, which represents an investment of $10 million and has allowed QSL to reinject a significant portion of this money into the local economy by enlisting the expertise of local partners.
The second phase of the project consists of the installation of a floating dock structure from which material will be unloaded from ships and transported directly to the warehouse via a set of electric conveyors.
