A new milestone: Sète fruit terminal

In 2023, the Group reached a new major milestone with the opening of the fruit terminal at the port of Sète. Located in the western Mediterranean, the Sète terminal is an ideal gateway for the import and export of products. It has 450 metres of berthing space (Pier E) with a draught of 12 metres, capable of accommodating large vessels. The terminal stands out for its temperature-controlled facilities, essential for maintaining the quality of fruit and vegetables. It can handle both conventional pallets and refrigerated containers, guaranteeing compliance with quality and traceability standards. This allows the integrity of the cold chain to be maintained from the arrival of the products until their final delivery. The inauguration of this terminal was marked by a major operation: the handling of 8,000 pallets of lychees from Madagascar, just in time for the Christmas season. This operation highlighted our expertise in maritime logistics and transport management throughout Europe.

The terminal's proximity to key national markets such as St Charles, Cavaillon and Châteaurenard reinforces its strategic role as a distribution centre for fruit and vegetables.
