About This Seaport
Agribusiness group Bunge runs its only port-based oilseed crushing plant in the Central Gulf Export Corridor at Destrehan, on the Mississippi River about 30 km upstream of New Orleans. The elevator gathers soybeans, corn, wheat and sorghum from more than 50 country elevators and ships soybean meal and oil to buyers across Asia, Europe, Latin America and the Middle East. Next door, ADM/GROWMARK's Terminal #3 offers a 244 m berth with roughly 12.2 m alongside depth and a Canadian National rail connection. This is firmly a dry-bulk and agricultural export facility, not a container gateway. Inland reach runs through the Mississippi barge network, Class I rail and the Interstate system into the US grain belt. Shippers needing boxes or breakbulk turn instead to New Orleans (Napoleon Avenue) or Gulfport.
