The operation of the terminal in Vasa began in 1 January, 2000. Today, the terminal handles about 70,000 tons of liner. However, other types of cargo handling can be undertaken as well.

The liner is delivered by vessel from Umeå, where it is loaded and secured on cassettes. In Vasa, the unloaded cargo is stored inside a newly built 4,000 sqm warehouse.

The distribution of the liner is carried out by trucks, which are loaded inside the warehouse. A trucking system exists, in which pre-set delivery times have been co-ordinated in an efficient manner according to customer preferences. Also, the terminal has a railway connection, which allows for deliveries by rail wagons.

Vasa Terminal is using a modern IT-system, which is fully compatible with the IT-system of all our other operating units. Also, the IT-system allows for Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) with the hauliers, our customers, as well as with our other operating units.

The operation of the terminal is run by Backman Trummer and reports to Interforest Terminal Sundsvall in Sweden.
