Media Release 10/11/2022
THE TRANSHIPMENT PORT IS THE SECOND T-PORTS FACILITY BUILT WITHIN THE LAST
4 YEARS IN REGIONAL SOUTH AUSTRALIA.
South Australian Port infrastructure company T-Ports announced it has now received
its first load into its Wallaroo facility on November 8. The milestone comes 2 years
after the Wallaroo project commenced construction and marks a strong period of
growth for the South Australian company since its inception in 2018.
Business Development & Client Relations Manager Tim Gurney said “To be driving a
shift in the grain export pathway in South Australia is why T-Ports exists. T-Ports was
founded with a mission to bring port facilities closer to growers and this is what we
are doing, evidenced by two ports built in four years. We are empowering local
growers and communities to export to the global market, achieving better returns to
growers and seeing more money coming back into local communities. Unlike our
competition, our point of difference is lower capital expenditure and shallow water
transhipment, offering competitive port charges and additional export capacity to the
market.This harvest is promising to be at record production and the launch of the
Wallaroo facility boosts our capacity, benefiting local growers and our grain trade
partners.”
The load was delivered by a local Paskeville grower from their northern aggregation
who said, “we need competition and choice and T-Ports delivers this in spades with
good service and prices“
T-Ports invites growers to be part of the local alternative to grain and commodity
export in South Australia. A partnership where local communities benefit from local
export.
