Monthly, the new terminal will be transited by 15 trains circulating on the route Constanta Port-SLS Bucharest Intermodal Terminal.
The project will significantly boost the company’s operating capacity, so far secured only by Buftea rail terminal.
In the past three years, SLS Cargo has accumulated an overall rented area of over 55,000 square meters, thus becoming the second major tenant of the park owned by P3 Logistic Parks on the A1 highway.
‘The new terminal comes to meet the need to identify solutions for the low number of rail terminals against the needed optimal number for the Romanian market,” said Mihai Stoica, Managing Director of SLS Cargo.
By end-2023, the company expects SLS Bucharest Intermodal Terminal to reach an operating capacity of as many as 750 containers monthly.
SLS Cargo started operating in 2014 by opening its first office in Bucharest and in 2015 opened another two locations in Radauti and Constanta. In 2016, it launched the first SLS Cargo warehouse of Bucharest.
In 2017, the company opened the first rail terminal of Bucharest and in 2018 it entered the markets of Bulgaria and Italy.
