CD Terminal, a company owned by logistics infrastructure firm Enstructure LLC, and wholesale fertilizer distributor MacroSource announced on Feb. 22 that they have entered into a long-term storage and handling agreement under which MacroSource will distribute fertilizer from CD Terminal’s newly acquired bulk terminal in Savage, Minn.
CD Terminal Savage was launched on Dec. 1, 2022, and is located at mile marker 13 on the Minnesota River. The 22-acre facility features six total loadouts, including four high-speed, and three scales to accommodate 75,000 tons of inside bulk storage and 100,000 tons of outside bulk storage. The facility also has rail access for 30 cars.
“CD’s investment in the Savage terminal represents a commitment to a stronger supply-chain for ag retailers across the northern tier,” said Brent Harland, CEO of MacroSource. “We look forward to growing together by offering our portfolio of competitive products combined with their reputable terminaling services.”
With corporate offices in Wellesley, Mass., and New York, N.Y., Enstructure owns and operates an integrated network of dry, liquid, and breakbulk terminals and logistics assets on the East Coast, Gulf Coast, and inland river system in the US. The company was founded in 2016, and provides terminaling services for companies in the energy, agriculture, food, manufacturing, construction, and public safety sectors.
“We are thrilled to welcome MacroSource, a world leader in the wholesale distribution of crop nutrients, as a customer and look forward to working with them to expand their business in the region and beyond,” said Dan Nisbit, President of Enstructure Inland River.
Based in Savannah, Ga., MacroSource has more than 350 employees and manages 7 million tons of dry and liquid fertilizer through more than 70 terminals across the US and its international distribution companies. MacroSource was launched in September 2022 (GM Sept. 30, 2022) as the new name of the former Gavilon Fertilizer LLC, following the sale of Gavilon Grain Co. and the Gavilon trademark by parent company Marubeni in January 2022 (GM Jan. 28, 2022).
