Vopak operates thirteen terminals in Latin America, the vast majority of which are used for the storage of chemicals (often imported) and vegetable oil (mainly exported). These terminals, with a total storage capacity of 0.8 million cbm, are spread right across the continent. At present, the storage of mineral oils remains limited to Peru. The relevant markets in Latin America are still relatively small. To nonetheless achieve economies of scale, the storage terminals are often used for a range of product groups such as chemicals, edible oils and even dry bulk. Customers are major regional players and multinationals.
