Charleston, SC, January 26, 2011 – Odfjell Holdings (US) has completed its purchase of a 20 acre terminal in North Charleston. The new terminal will consist of 40 tanks with excellent deep draft on the shipping channel, dual rail and highway access.

Odfjell is a leading company in the global market for transportation and storage of bulk liquid chemicals, acids, edible oils and other special products. “This will be a great supplement to our existing terminal in Houston and our worldwide tank terminal network. When combined with our shipping network, the new facility will provide additional distribution options for our customers delivering more efficiency to their supply chains,” said Dave Ellis, President, Odfjell Terminals (Houston).

“The excellent transportation connectivity of this site including access to Charleston’s deep shipping channel and dual rail service by CSX and Norfolk Southern were the main catalysts in selling this site,” said Amanda Kitchen of Colliers International. Amanda Kitchen and Hagood Morrison of Colliers International brokered the sale of this site and specialize in private port terminal facilities along the east coast.
