Danish shipping giant Norden has signed its first port logistics project in Australia with Kimberley Metals Group (KMG), a developer and operator of iron ore mining projects.
Norden will provide additional assets for the existing transhipment operation, loading iron ore from the port of Wyndham in Western Australia onto barges and ocean-going vessels.
The contract also entails a fixed-term charter arrangement with an option to extend. The first barge is expected to launch in July this year.
With this new project, Norden will further grow its integrated logistics and freight solutions among current and existing customers in Australia.
“[The contract takes] our existing partnership to a new level by combining our freight services with our expertise within logistics to optimise KMG’s entire port-to-port supply chain,” said Anne Jensen, COO at Norden.
