Bulk, Breakbulk & Project Cargo

The Port of Sheet Harbour is a deep water port terminal located along the Atlantic Seaboard of Canada. With its capability to handle multiple configurations of breakbulk and special project cargo, this terminal is an ideal choice for your supply chain requirements.

Our engineering expertise will enable us to conduct several port infrastructure improvements. These improvements, combined with our key local partnerships and international network, will be instrumental in achieving growth at the Port of Sheet Harbour. We forecast to bring synergies and opportunities on many fronts: bulk sector: biomass (wood chips, wood pellets), aggregates, gypsum; breakbulk: project cargo (wind turbines), and aquaculture.
