Grupa Azoty integrates logistics operations across the entire capital group

The Grupa Azoty Management Board has approved a resolution that preliminarily adopts a concept for integrating logistics operations within the Grupa Azoty Capital Group. In the coming steps, a dedicated team will develop the final integration model, exploring opportunities to centralize logistics functions.

As part of this initiative, recommendations will be formulated regarding the Group’s logistics-related companies and the potential for segregating logistics processes within the organization. Approval of the logistics integration schedule is expected in Q3 2025.

The concept for integrating logistics operations was developed through strategic initiatives under the Azoty Business Program.

“For several months, we have been emphasizing that logistics will play a much greater role in Grupa Azoty’s business than before. This encompasses not only our port areas—where partnerships with companies interested in importing various raw materials are key—but also our railway infrastructure. We are changing our approach to logistics by moving away from using our assets solely for the benefit of the Capital Group. We see significant potential for generating external revenue, and Grupa Azoty is in the best position to lead in the supply of imported ammonia to Poland, given that it owns the country’s only sea-based ammonia transshipment terminal,” said Andrzej Dawidowski, President of the Management Board of Grupa Azoty Police and head of logistics at Grupa Azoty S.A. “Our port in Police is extremely important to us. We are currently executing a project to build a railway connection with an associated siding to open the port to external customers,” he added.

Among Grupa Azoty’s logistics assets are the railway company Grupa Azoty Koltar, the seaports in Gdańsk, Gdynia, and Police, as well as the extensive logistics infrastructure of various Capital Group companies and the LHS transshipment terminal at Grupa Azoty Siarkopol.

In recent days, the Police subsidiary signed an agreement for the development of the Police Marine Port area. The agreement was signed with the Marshal’s Office of the West Pomeranian Voivodeship, the Police County Office, the Police Municipal Office, and the Management Board of the Police Marine Port, and covers more than 300 plots of land totaling over 460 hectares. The aim of the agreement is to enhance the economic potential and attractiveness of the area for investors, as well as to boost regional labor market competitiveness. The initiatives are expected to increase revenues from port handling, leases, port services, and local fees.

In the context of enhancing the role of logistics within Grupa Azoty, it is worth recalling that in October last year, funding of over €33 million was granted by the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency for an investment undertaken by the Management Board of the Police Marine Port. This investment aims to improve the port’s accessibility from both the land and sea, and to increase its transshipment efficiency, with completion scheduled for Q1 2028.
