VLI handled 12.5 million tons of grains and sugar in the first half of 2020, up 14% compared to the same period in 2019. The company that offers logistics solutions to integrate terminals, railways and ports has reported that the volume of grains (soybeans, corn, and bran) surpassed 10 million tons, and the volume of sugar was close to two million tons. The Port Integrator Terminal Luiz Antonio Mesquita (Tiplam) recorded a growth rate of 25% in volume of grains and sugar, compared to the same period of 2019. The port handled almost four million tons of cargo. “The terminal is already responsible for about a third of the volume of sugar exported by Santos, and, in the medium and long-term projection, the volume will increase due to the new warehouses built in partnership with Tereos in Tiplam and Guará, in the countryside of São Paulo” the company says.
