The Nordfrost seaport terminal currently offers customers a storage capacity of 105,000 pallet spaces, divided equally between the frozen, fresh and dry temperature ranges. The fresh food terminal was the first to go into operation in July 2012 - shortly before the official opening of the container port. The dry warehouses for commercial goods of all kinds, located in the northern building complex, were opened in September 2018. The deep-freeze warehouse began storing the first pallet in January 2018, which also marked the start of operations in the first hygiene area, a so-called white area for processing food.
foodstuffs. Since then, products have been packaged here according to customer specifications, such as freshly delivered meat products, which are then shock-frozen and temporarily stored - services that Nordfrost also offers at other locations throughout Germany.

The newly constructed second hygiene area at the southern end of the building complex has now commenced operations. This is located in front of the high-bay warehouse and consists of a multifunctional hall and four separate production halls, each measuring 10 m x 60 m, plus ancillary rooms. Depending on customer requirements, Nordfrost is now equipping the individual areas with automatic systems, for example for contract filling of chilled and non-chilled foods in a wide variety of packaging types and formats with individual designs (bags, folding boxes, vacuum, cartons, etc.).

A multihead weigher with a connected flow-wrapping system is already in operation. This is used to fill frozen items from large containers into smaller consumption units for the respective national markets. Customers now have a total of around 5,000 m² of white space at their disposal for outsourcing process steps directly in the port. Production and storage are carried out at the highest quality level, certified according to IFS Food and IFS Logistics, both at higher level, as well as according to organic quality standards. During the subsequent container stowage, no weight restrictions need to be observed for transportation in the port if the logistics provider sends the goods on their sea voyage via the neighbouring Wilhelmshaven container terminal. Official clearance and the organization and implementation of the entire supply chain, including combined transport, are in his hands.

The new administration building for the terminal was also occupied at the beginning of the year. In October of this year, the high-bay warehouse for a further 40,000 frozen pallet spaces with automatic loading and unloading of trucks will finally go into operation. The family-owned company has thus invested around 200 million euros in the Nordfrost seaport terminal in the port's logistics zone.
