The first stage of the warehouse expansion, which is expected to increase the area by 20%, was the launch of a new production site “Warehouse 81” of 13,500 m² and an operational capacity of 1,113 TEUs within the territory of CPV.
“FESCO Group pays close attention to the strategic development of the Commercial Port of Vladivostok and, first of all, to increasing its capacity,” said Andrey Severilov, chairman of the board of directors of FESCO.
The development strategy of the Commercial Port of Vladivostok also includes the introduction of modern Information Technology (IT) infrastructure, modernisation of warehouses, railway infrastructure and sea berths as well as the purchase of new equipment.
By 2025 the Russian port plans to purchase 170 units of machine equipment, at stage one (in 2023) – ten RTG cranes, six reach stackers, four reach trucks, one track mobile and 19 tractors with semi-trailers.
“We are implementing an ambitious programme aimed at expanding and optimising container areas of the port so that by the end of 2023 CPV could process 840,000 TEUs and in the future reach figures of 1 million TEUs,” pointed out Severilov.
