Surging Demand: Hamilton & Oshawa Port Increase Space
HOPA invests in the future of shipping to increase connectivity and efficiency for its partners.
With the yearly increases of e-commerce spending and high-tech products flooding the North American market cargo shipping has seen its steady increase. The same goes for bulk and breakbulk cargo (BULK relates to trades where dry cargoes such as Iron ore, Grain, Coal, Alumina and Phosphate are carried in loose form & BREAKBULK relates to trades where the cargoes are carried in a unitized form such as palletized, bagged, strapped, bundled, drummed and crated). The Hamilton Port handles some 10 million tonnes annually which is the most of any port on the Great Lakes.
Another benefit to shippers and processors is the ability to store Liquid Bulk within Hamilton and the newly acquired Oshawa Port. Safety is the main concern for all liquid bulk cargo such as petroleum, LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), LNG (liquefied natural gas) and chemicals. With access to rail and road, HOPA can serve the expanding food and beverage processing sector with the ability to load, unload and store Non-hazardous liquid build cargo including vegetable oils, cooking oils, milk and juices.
