NAVIOS Terminal www.naviosterminals.com Latitude: 33º 52′ 57″S Longitude: 058º 25′ 25″W

The terminal, which operates 24 hours per day seven days per week, has two docks. The principal outer dock, which is 240 meters long and can accommodate vessels of up to 85,000 DWT, is capable of loading vessels at rates of up to 20,000 tons per day. The secondary inner dock, which is 170 meters long and is dedicated to the discharge of barge convoys, is capable of discharging barges at rates of up to 14,000 tons per day. Fixed duty cycle cranes located on each dock carry out the discharging of the barge convoys. The terminal’s nine silos provide 205,000 tons of clean and secure grain capacity. The terminal operates 24 hours/day, 7 days/week to provide barge and ship traffic with safe, fast turnarounds. The ability to undertake multiple operations simultaneously involving ocean vessels, barges, trucks and grain silos, further enables the terminal to efficiently service customers’ needs.

TGU Terminal www.tgu.com.uy Latitude: 33º 52′ 35″S Longitude: 058º 25′ 24″W

It comprises of the port administered by the Administración Nacional de Puertos – ANP (National Port Administration), the CORPORACION NAVIOS S.A. Terminal and private port, located immediately adjacent downstream, and the FRIGOFRUT installations located north of the latter, with all of them acting under the same system as the ZONA FRANCA DE NUEVA PALMIRA (Nueva Palmira Free Zone). The port premises have silos for agricultural bulk storage with a maximum capacity of around 72.000 tons, managed by the TERMINALES GRANELERAS URUGUAYAS S.A. – TGU Consortium. Among their equipment, it is worth mentioning a grain loader and a conveyor belt linking the North berths with the silos. Nueva Palmira is located at the origin of the Paraná-Paraguay Waterway, an advantage that added to the benefits of offering a duty free zone and river accessibility (from the River Plate, through the Martín García Channel), makes it a gateway to the heart of the South American continent.
