Ruscon Integrates Novorossiysk Terminal Operations

RUSCON Russian multimodal operator RUSCON is integrating its terminal operations close to the Black Sea port of Novorossiysk in order to increase operation efficiency, the company said. The operators Novorossiysk and Yug terminals have been co-operating and using shared software since 2014, but this move will ensure that total throughput will increase and a greater range of cargo can be handled. The Yug terminal is already undergoing an upgrade with the construction of a new warehouse and logistics complex, Dmitriy Kutateladze, Director Liner and Business Development, RUSCON, said. The full integration with our other terminal in Novorossiysk will allow us to increase our throughput of aggregates as well as improve the efficiency of the warehouse and logistics operation. RUSCON earlier installed an automated system for loading mineral fertilizers at its Novorossiysk terminal. The company handled some 180,000 containers through the port of Novorossiyk in 2015.
