Acron Beka acted as financial advisor to Vopak Terquimsa in the sale of its liquid bulk terminal at the Port of Barcelona to Tradebe, a Catalan family-owned group specializing in environmental and logistics services.
The transaction strengthens Vopak Terquimsa’s asset optimization strategy, which will now focus its efforts on the growth and expansion of its Tarragona terminal, while Tradebe consolidates its position at the Energy Quay of the Port of Barcelona, where it will manage three concessions with a total storage capacity of over 600,000 cubic meters.
The transferred terminal in Barcelona covers an area of 50,000 m², with 43 tanks and a total capacity of 210,000 m³, as well as access to four docks, a rail connection, and multimodal logistics services. Operational since 1970, the facility has played a key role in the development of chemical, fuel, biofuel, and other liquid traffic in the port area.
Vopak Terquimsa is a company specializing in the management of liquid bulk storage terminals. With over 50 years of experience in the Spanish market, it operates strategic terminals in Barcelona and Tarragona with a combined capacity exceeding 650,000 cubic meters, serving key sectors such as chemical, energy, and industrial.
Tradebe, meanwhile, is a family-owned business group founded in Barcelona in 1980. With an international presence and operations in more than 20 countries, it specializes in environmental management, industrial services, and liquid product logistics. At the Port of Barcelona, it already operates two concessions at the Energy Quay, and with the addition of the terminal acquired from Vopak Terquimsa, it further strengthens its position as a leading operator in the Mediterranean.
“We are very grateful to Vopak Terquimsa and its two shareholders (Vopak and Exolum) for trusting Acron Beka in a divestment and corporate reorganization process that was executed with great diligence by the teams at Vopak Terquimsa and Tradebe. Both parties demonstrated great flexibility in negotiation and structuring capabilities, without which transactions of this complexity rarely succeed.” – Arturo García-Tizón, Co-head of Acron Beka.
With this transaction, Acron Beka continues a very successful year advising major corporate clients, financial institutions, and private equity and infrastructure funds on corporate transactions that require highly specialized sector knowledge, the ability to execute complex deals, and strict confidentiality throughout the design and execution of the operation.
