Humber bulk terminal bought by port giant Peel as it secures South Bank operation

Peel Ports Group has swooped for a bulk terminal on the Humber, completing the deal with Dutch-based HES International.

The New Holland operation is located at the former Victorian ferry pier that once provided the only public crossing to Hull. It has been expanded to feature 275,000 sq m of storage with an automated conveyor-fed import and export system in recent years, with a further 6,000 sq m outside storage land-side.

It is an eighth location for UK operator Peel, and first in the region, and will be operated by its Peel Ports Logistics division, joining activity in the North West, at Runcorn and Ellesmere Port.
