Kalmar to supply terminal tractors to Grimaldi
NewsGrimaldi orders Kalmar’s heavy terminal tractors for its Ro-Ro operations.
Grimaldi’s purchase of TDT Livorno officially recognised
Italy’s Competition and Markets Authority (AGCM) has acknowledged that Grimaldi Group will be buying the whole of Terminal Darsena Toscana from GIP Gruppo Investimenti Portuale
The AGCM has been sent and reviewed all the doucments and any third parties wanting to express an interest in the TDT deal have until just 27 December to submit their comments. In practice, therefore, the deal is being nodded through.
Barring surprises, Grimaldi Euromed SpA will acquire 80% of TDT and Grimaldi Deep Sea SpA will acquire the other 20%. The price is thought to be around €150M, or the same that MSC had offered for TDT.
Grimaldi has had operations in the port for years, but the spaces are dispersed and sub-optimal. TDT represents a strategic base in the Upper Tirrenian, convenient for all its ro-pax, deepsea con-ro and ro-ro business, along with its Motorways of the Seas links within Italy – it is particularly convenient for links to Sardinia – and across to Spain.
