Background

European Bulk Services (EBS) is a dry bulk terminal operator in the Port of Rotterdam, Netherlands. Its total transshipment amounts to approximately 12 million tonnes a year. EBS markets itself as "the largest dry bulk terminal for agri, minerals and biomass in the Port of Rotterdam." In recent years, as coal volumes have declined, EBS has sought to transport other forms of dry bulk cargo.
