AGP扩大灰色设施港口

AG加工公司（AGP），奥马哈，NE，宣布推出其出口设施的重大扩张和升级灰色港口（Pogh）港口in Aberdeen, WA.

该计划包括升级到终端2的当前设施，包括建造额外的存储，以及Pogh的码头4的新型最先进的船舶装载机。

端子2和终端4都是深水泊位，可快速进入开阔的海洋。计划的扩展将使AGP加载到多个船舶，最多可加入船舶和包括PanAmax大小的船只。

“AGP has developed a very strong relationship with the Port of Grays Harbor leadership team," says AGP’s Chairman of the Board Lowell Wilson.

“AGP董事会批准的项目将大大增加轨道卸载速度，船舶装载能力并添加冗余。”

AGP的首席执行官Chris Schaffer扩张在美国大豆挤压能力由对可再生柴油原料的需求驱动，美国大豆膳食生产将在国内使用量的历史上升。

“AGP的西部美国加工地点适合供给额外的蛋白质到越来越多的东南亚和亚洲市场，”Schaffer说。

“美国目前提供的不到20%all Southeast Asian soymeal demand," he continues.

“多年来，AGP与该地区的蛋白质买家建立了非常强大的关系。该项目将显着提高速度，容量和产品可用性，以获得当前和未来的国际客户的利益。”

AGP的AG产品副总裁Craig Pietig今天表示，时间比以往任何时候都更有价值。

“升级和新船舶装载机将改善我们植物的物流，增强生产和降低船只闲置时间，”彼得格说。

“所有这一切都将降低最终客户的成本，确保灰色港口港口仍然是大豆膳食出口和其他加工商品的成本效益。

"In the past, exports have been curtailed by U.S. soybean meal production capacities," he continues. "Once the announced expansions in the domestic soybean crushing industry are in operation there will be additional soybean meal to better serve the growing international demand for protein.

“当该项目完成时，我们的卸载功能将竞争谷物终端速度，扩大的设施将提供所需的营销渠道，以预期供应增加。”

AGP expects operations to begin in 2025.

“We are committed to working with the port and government officials to develop and complete this important project in order to better serve our customers and also provide benefits to our cooperative members, their farmer owners, and the surrounding community,” says Schaffer.
