TRIESTE –<\/strong> The Rhenus<\/a> Group has acquired its first company-owned rail terminal in Kazakhstan<\/strong>, in the Almaty region, along the Middle Corridor<\/a>. The investment strengthens the country\u2019s role as a Eurasian logistics hub and could open up new opportunities for European and Italian companies heading to Central Asia<\/strong>. Operating as QAZContargo Almaty Ltd., the terminal is located at Bayserke railway station and is connected to the main domestic and international corridors.<\/strong> The facility enables integrated handling of import, export and transit flows between Europe, China and Central Asia, in an area where demand is growing for rail and multimodal solutions as alternatives to traditional routes.<\/p>\n

The infrastructure features areas for container storage, bonded warehouses, block-train handling and rail transhipment.<\/strong> It also includes a system to transfer bulk cargo from rail wagons into containers<\/strong>, designed for sectors such as machinery, automotive, chemicals and industrial goods. Day-to-day operations will be handled by Contargo<\/strong>, Rhenus\u2019s long-standing partner in container logistics. For Made in Italy, Kazakhstan is a growing market and a strategic gateway to countries such as Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan. The new Almaty terminal strengthens Rhenus\u2019s presence in the area, where the Group has been operating since 1996, and expands its range of tailored services for companies seeking more resilient routes to Asia, the Group says in a note.<\/p>\n

With this acquisition, Rhenus will operate its second containerised rail infrastructure in Central Asia, after the terminal developed in 2025 in Andijon, in cooperation with Uzbek Railways.<\/strong> The move fits into the broader process of supply-chain regionalisation and the growing attention on the Middle Corridor as a stable alternative to traditional Eurasian corridors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
