Terminals
Of Toros Tarım’s non-fertiliser business lines, marine terminal services, which are supported by other activities such as ship agency, are provided through two terminals located one each within the grounds of its Ceyhan and Samsun plants. Toros Tarım is the operator of the Adana Yumurtalık Free Zone (TAYSEB), whose 4.5 million m2 of grounds make it not just one of the biggest free zones in the world but also the first–and still the only–free zone that was set up in Turkey explicitly for the conduct of heavy-industry investments.
Torosport Ceyhan Terminal: A pier that Toros Tarım had constructed in 1981 within the premises of its Ceyhan plant in order to deal with its own logistical requirements was expanded with additional investments and began to serve non-Tekfen customers as well, thereby opening up another business line for the group to pursue. Based on its overall handling capacity, the Torosport Ceyhan Terminal remains an important bulk cargo and general cargo handling facility in the Gulf of İskenderun.
Torosport Samsun Terminal: The other location where Toros Tarım conducts its terminal operations is the Torosport Samsun Terminal which, like the Torosport Ceyhan Terminal, is suitable for discharging both dry bulk and liquid chemical cargos. This terminal has two separate berths whose combined handling capacity of dry bulk cargo is 14,000 tons a day.
