HES Med Terminals (Sosersid-Somarsid)

3 terminals specialized in dry bulk, steel and heavy lifts

Our exceptional geographical location makes us an ideal hub for Europe, North Africa and Asian shipping routes.

We are specialized in heavy lift cargo and the handling and storage of steel products as well as dry bulk cargo. Due to our strategic location in the heart of the North Western Mediterranean at the crossroads of the maritime transport routes, we are linked to the main European capitals in less than 24 hours.

At one of the in total 3 terminals the focus is entirely on breakbulk. The development of the breakbulk activity requires innovation and engineering and that’s exactly why our breakbulk terminal is so attractive for customers and the most impressive projects. The unloading of military tanks, outstanding works of Art, the roro loading of trains… We are able to manage the most exclusive and extraordinary requests.

Contributing to the world of tomorrow. That’s what we do at our terminals. We are an important switch in the continuous delivery of essential building blocks for our everyday life.

The car you drive or the energy from your socket for example: chances are that the necessary raw materials for these products were transported via our terminals. At our break bulk terminal we are able to manage the most exclusive and extraordinary requests like the roro loading of trains or the unloading of military tanks. At our terminals, around 173 colleagues work hard 24/7 on matters that affect and shape our daily lives.

They always do so with the highest level of commitment to both safety and care for the environment – essential when working for or with us.
