With a network of 440,000 mt of nominal storage capacity, SILOPOR facilities can accomodate, if necessary, all the portuguese imports through those ports, at an year round average of 4 Mt of grains and non-grain food and feed ingredients (ngfi's) coming in European originated small coasters or atlantic sea-going vessels.

SILOPOR operates in the handling business, dealing with all types of agribulk products, with a global share of around 50% of the portuguese import market, having no interests in the trading business whatsoever, thus servicing all the import/distributing companies that operate in the trading market, under a duty-free status, if necessary.

Each of the three port silos installations has a specific aim in SILOPOR's developing policy of improving through quality its handling/storage ability for all the various imported agribulks:

	TRAFARIA DEEP WATER TERMINAL, as a unique high speed computorized transhipment centre in the Mediterranean and western European areas.
	BEATO GRAIN TERMINAL, located on the mainstream of the industry, along the south/north highway, with first class railway loading/unloading capabilities.
	LEIXÕES PORT ELEVATOR, with an adjacent mechanised flat warehouse, both 600m distant from the port of Leixões quays, is the only storage-lung available in the area to support the high-speed grab discharge, available at the port.
