The Alabo Street Terminal is connected to Class 1 rail and highway systems and serves shippers from across the world through markets in the southern states and the US Midwest.

The acquisition expands GSM’s network of nine terminals in ports in Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi. It enables the company to offer more options for customers who wish to access new markets.

Gulf Stream Marine executive vice-president Michel Miron said: “Expanding GSM’s reach and bringing our specialised expertise to serve break-bulk and project cargo customers at the Port of New Orleans was the next step in our growth plan.

“We worked very closely with the leadership team at the port to find the perfect fit for our service offering and we look forward to working together to grow this viable gateway.”
