New facility boosts competitiveness and logistical efficiency of sugar exports<\/em><\/em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil,<\/strong> August 21, 2025 – Louis Dreyfus Company (LDC), a leading global merchant and processor of agricultural goods and one of the world\u2019s largest sugar merchants, today inaugurated its intermodal sugar terminal in Pederneiras, S\u00e3o Paulo State, Brazil. The investment is part of the company\u2019s strategy to further strengthen its merchandizing capacity \u2013 in this case, by increasing sugar origination and export volumes \u2013 and to leverage logistical synergies with other operations, such as Grains & Oilseeds, boosting efficiency and enhancing customer service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LDC\u2019s terminal will become a new logistics hub for mills located in the country\u2019s Center-South region, by enabling the flow of sugar production to the Port of Santos via rail, until now carried out almost exclusively by road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Covering an area of approximately 120,000 m\u00b2, with 14,000 m\u00b2 of built areas, the facility includes a bulk warehouse with static capacity of 90,000 tons and able to handle at least 150,000 tons monthly. The site features a modern receiving and shipping system, including automated sampling, scales and conveyors, and is equipped to receive up to 6,000 tons of sugar daily in two shifts, and ship up to 8,500 tons daily by rail, for a total annual capacity of 1 million tons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe sugar terminal further reinforces LDC\u2019s competitive edge, as it allows for strategic product storage, optimizes merchandizing activities during the harvest and offers an efficient road-rail logistics alternative. With the start of operations in Pederneiras, we will double our volumes of sugar transported by rail, which will reach 50% in the country,\u201d says Guilherme Correia, LDC\u2019s Head of Sugar for Brazil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Pederneiras terminal will be LDC\u2019s Sugar Platform\u2019s second logistics facility and will operate in synergy with Guaruj\u00e1 Sugar Export Terminal (Terminal Exportador de A\u00e7\u00facar do Guaruj\u00e1 \u2013 or TEAG<\/em>), where the company operates through a joint venture. Recent investments in TEAG aimed to increase the site\u2019s share of products received via rail, further strengthening the efficiency and integration of LDC\u2019s logistics operations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe start of operations at Pederneiras terminal marks an important step in our logistics network. We have been active in grain handling in the region for 20 years, connecting waterway and railway flows, and are now expanding this scope with sugar operations. This will enable us to increase rail traffic and load trains with 80 wagons of grain and sugar combined on a daily basis. This integration between commodities increases the volume of grain sent to both Guaruj\u00e1 Export Terminal (Terminal Exportador do Guaruj\u00e1 \u2013 or TEG<\/em>) and Santos Export Terminal (Terminal Exportador de Santos \u2013 or TES<\/em>), as well as sugar volumes sent to TEAG, reinforcing our long-term commitment to the development of production chains and the flow of agricultural products we work with,\u201d says Jo\u00e3o Paiva, LDC\u2019s Global Head of Ports and Waterways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
