PD Ports invests at Groveport
PD Ports is making a multi-million pound investment at Groveport on the River Trent near Scunthorpe in partnership with All Steels Trading.
Construction will take six months and increase All Steels Trading’s footprint at the site from 166,000 sq ft to over 300,000 sq ft, as well as providing direct quay access.
Laurence McDougall, All Steels Trading managing director, said: “Having the ability to centralise all of our operations at Groveport enables us to deliver an unrivalled service for our customers, reaffirming our market position as the number one choice for long steel products in the UK.”
And Geoff Lippitt of PD Ports said: “We have seen transformational change in the global steel industry in recent years which has brought challenges but also real opportunity for some of our customers and we are continuing to invest and support that customer growth.”
