Ceres Terminals Rebranded As SSA Marine

Carrix, a marine terminal operator based in Seattle, recently announced the rebranding of Ceres Terminals as SSA Marine, following Carrix’s acquisition of the company.

The acquisition, originally announced in September 2023, expands SSA Marine’s global footprint as well as its ability to provide marine terminal operations and stevedoring services for container, breakbulk, cruise line and auto customers throughout North America, particularly in the Gulf and Atlantic regions of the U.S.

SSA Marine now has facilities in Texas (Galveston, Houston, Port Arthur and Beaumont); Louisiana (Metairie and New Orleans); Mississippi (Columbus, Gulfport, Pascagoula and Port Bienville); Alabama (Mobile); the Florida Gulf Coast (Panama City); and Arkansas (Little Rock), along with locations in the Great Lakes, Atlantic Coast, Pacific Southwest and Northwest, Canada and Mexico.

“Adding Ceres’ extensive operations and tremendous employees to the SSA Marine family brings new efficiencies to bear for our marine terminal operations in North America,” said Uffe Ostergaard, CEO of Carrix. “Operating as one, unified brand will allow us to take advantage of the extensive combined industry experience and shared best practices of both companies in service to our customers.”

As a result of this integration, the Ceres brand will sunset, and all Ceres operations will take place under the SSA Marine brand.
