SSA Marine, one of the world’s leading independent marine terminal operators and the largest container terminal operator in the Americas, announced today that it has expanded its investment in Termont Montreal Inc. (“Termont”) by acquiring an additional 25% interest in the company from Logistec. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
The transaction increases SSA Marine’s stake in Termont to 50%, building on its legacy of Canadian marine terminal and stevedoring operations. Termont operates the Maisonneuve Terminal and the Viau Terminal at the Port of Montreal, handling container cargo with a capacity of 1.1 million TEUs. Termont is one of the two primary container terminal operators in the Port of Montreal, where approximately 1,000 stevedores are employed.

“SSA Marine is a major container handling service provider that will build on the expertise of the Termont team,” said Sean Pierce, CEO of LOGISTEC. “This transaction is aligned with LOGISTEC’s focus on expanding our multi-purpose terminal portfolio at the Port of Montreal, a key North American gateway, and our global expansion.”
