Mosaic Fertilizantes is planning the construction of a new blending, storage, and distribution unit in Palmeirante (TO) in Brazil, as well as in a long-term railway transportation agreement, according to Toledo Marchetti Advogados, an attorney who assisted the company in the negotiations.
The project will be located within the Palmeirante Integrator Terminal (TIPA), which has a direct railway connection to the Port of Itaqui (MA), where imported raw materials for fertilizer production will arrive. Mosaic had not returned inquiries at press time.
Mosaic Fertilizantes will invest R$400 million in this new unit, with a production capacity of 500,000 mt/y, potentially reaching an annual production of 1 million mt by 2028. Additionally, the facility will have a warehouse for up to 100,000 mt. The project will employ around 200 people during its operational phase.
