An independent terminal operator, since 1938
Hanno Rotterdam BV (KVK 24053277) is an independently registered Dutch company handling maritime transhipment, petroleum storage and dry bulk storage from our head office on the Maasvlakte, Rotterdam.
Nearly nine decades on, the same discipline that built our first quay now runs at our Rotterdam hub, extended through subleasing partners spanning the Americas, the Middle East and Asia.
Reliable terminals, run the same way every time
We measure ourselves on whether a berth, tank or conveyor performs exactly as promised — not on how the operation looks from the outside.
From a single quay to a global network
Hanno is founded on the Rotterdam waterfront, handling maritime transhipment for early river and coastal traffic.
Expansion onto the Maasvlakte as Rotterdam's port reclaims land seaward, adding deep-water berths for larger vessels.
Petroleum and dry bulk storage become dedicated business lines alongside core transhipment services.
The network extends beyond Rotterdam with terminal capacity in Houston, Zhoushan, Jurong and Fujairah.
Hanno Rotterdam BV operates as an independent, KVK-registered terminal group headquartered on the Maasvlakte.
Two disciplines, one terminal network
Transhipment
Berth-to-berth loading and unloading of maritime cargo.
Petroleum Storage
Tank storage with direct pipeline access to berth.
Dry Bulk Storage
Covered and open storage moved by conveyor.
One hub, backed by partners worldwide
Partner Sublease Locations
Beyond Rotterdam, Hanno maintains subleasing partnerships that extend our reach without operating separate terminals.
- Houston, US
- Zhoushan, China
- Jurong, Singapore
- Fujairah, UAE
One HSE standard, at our hub
Permit-to-work controls, mandatory PPE and incident reporting apply identically across our Rotterdam terminal.
- Mandatory PPE and site induction for every visitor and contractor
- Permit-to-work controls on all hot and confined-space tasks
- Independent HSE audits across the terminal network
Reducing the footprint, berth by berth
Shore power, vapour recovery and treated water discharge are part of how we run terminals — not a separate initiative bolted on afterward.
Our Sustainability CommitmentsMonitored operations, not guesswork
Berth schedules, tank levels and conveyor throughput are tracked from a central operations desk — the same discipline behind the live conditions shown on our Rotterdam terminal page.
Our Innovations
Terminal operations run on people, not just infrastructure
From crane operators to berth planners, HSE officers to terminal managers — our teams are what keep a 24-hour terminal network running safely.
View Open Roles
Long-term terminal relationships, not one-off bookings
Refiners, traders and bulk shippers work with Hanno on multi-year storage and throughput agreements built around consistent, repeatable performance.
