STREK
is one of the leading dry cargo terminals at the Riga Free Port.
STREK Ltd. was established in 1991 combining the
ideas, visions, and funds of the founders from three countries -
Latvia, Russia and France.
The project design was made by the LENMORNIIPROEKT institute and
already by the end of 1991 the company BALTMORGIDROSTROI started
development of the berths. A powerful complex for transhipment of
Vorkuta coal witch an annual turnover of 1.5 million tons per year
was created.
Officially we were registered in the Enterprises Registry of the
Republic of Latvia on 14 November 1991. In 1992 we started to operate
the first stage of our coal terminal. The annual turnover of cargo
handling in 1992 - 1993 reached 9000 000 t. During the short period
of 1991 - 1993 we created the basis for out future development.
Several years passes, the situation changed and coal started to
disapper for our terminals, but our willingness to do business remained
the same. The port has to be loaded, but which type of cargo to
attract? And we made a step forward, new powerful technology appeared,
open storage areas for storing of coal were covered witch the concrete
stabs, new access roads were build, additional transformer sub-stations
and lighting masts.
Starting from 1994 we have adjusted coal terminal and have already
now a real possibility to receive, store and handle not only coal,
although we still hope for its return on our berths, but also pig
iron, coce, timber and other types of cargo.
Infrastructure enabliing efficient operations and meeting international
standarts is created.
