Project scope and objective
Terminal Zárate (TZ) is an Argentine, privately owned multipurpose port terminal located in the city of Zárate, Province of Buenos Aires. It operates as a container, general cargo, and vehicle terminal, and provides complementary services.
The IIC loan will comprise an A loan and a B loan for a total of up to US$14 million. The purpose of the loan is to provide financing for infrastructure work to expand the pier and the container yard, improve the vehicle parking lot, and purchase new equipment. The IIC will syndicate part of the loan to attract other banks to provide Terminal Zárate with financing on the same terms. The IIC loan will help the company boost its operations by making cash flow planning easier.
