Terminals

Of Toros Tarım’s non-fertiliser business lines, marine terminal services, which are supported by other activities such as ship agency, are provided through two terminals located one each within the grounds of its Ceyhan and Samsun plants. Toros Tarım is the operator of the Adana Yumurtalık Free Zone (TAYSEB), whose 4.5 million m2 of grounds make it not just one of the biggest free zones in the world but also the first–and still the only–free zone that was set up in Turkey explicitly for the conduct of heavy-industry investments.

Torosport Ceyhan Terminal: A pier that Toros Tarım had constructed in 1981 within the premises of its Ceyhan plant in order to deal with its own logistical requirements was expanded with additional investments and began to serve non-Tekfen customers as well, thereby opening up another business line for the group to pursue. Based on its overall handling capacity, the Torosport Ceyhan Terminal remains an important bulk cargo and general cargo handling facility in the Gulf of İskenderun.

Torosport Samsun Terminal: The other location where Toros Tarım conducts its terminal operations is the Torosport Samsun Terminal which, like the Torosport Ceyhan Terminal, is suitable for discharging both dry bulk and liquid chemical cargos. This terminal has two separate berths whose combined handling capacity of dry bulk cargo is 14,000 tons a day.

Free Zone Management

With 4,635 thousand m2 of fully-installed infrastructure and serving the region in which Toros Tarım’s own Ceyhan facilities are located, the Adana Yumurtalık Free Zone (TAYSEB) is one of Turkey’s biggest free zones. TAYSEB was the first free zone in Turkey that was set up explicitly to attract and accommodate industrial investments. TAYSEB is managed by Toros Adana Yumurtalık Serbest Bölgesi Kurucu ve İşleticisi AŞ, a wholly-owned Toros Tarım subsidiary that is also the zone’s original founder and operator.

Owing to its convenient location on the Gulf of İskenderun and its access to a wide range of transportation options, TAYSEB offers substantial benefits for industrial concerns that want to take advantage of Turkey’s free-zone incentives regime. TAYSEB tenants who have operations in the zone can be provided with terminal services through the Torosport Ceyhan Terminal.

Due to a surge in petrochemical and chemical industry activities and to its attractiveness to ship and superyacht builders, in recent years TAYSEB has become a preferred investment and production centre to which firms in these sectors are giving priority.
