IPSWICH is part of Associated British Ports' so-called shortsea division, but within its regular cargo mix are timber imports from Canada, fertiliser from Venezuela and onions from New Zealand.

The port recently signed a renewed three-year agreement with Cory Brothers for the onion business and this year has handled two record-breaking cargoes of granular urea, 14,832 tonnes for Ameropa shipped from Puerto Jose, Venezuela, and 12,859 tonnes for Helm Fertilisers from Damietta, Egypt.

The port has a strong tradition in handling timber from Scandinavia and the Baltics but also has a large area stacked with Canadian timber, brought in by Continental Wood Products.

'It is a trend because of the supply issues in the Baltic,' says Alastair MacFarlane, manager for ABP's East Anglian Ports.

ABP now runs its East Anglian ports, including Ipswich, King's Lynn and Lowestoft, as one business unit.

This provides obvious synergies such as shifting workers from one port to another if needed, but also the sales and marketing for all three ports is based on one business unit, says Mr MacFarlane.
