Humber Freeport Funds AAK's £2m Hull Site Expansion

AAK, a plant-based oils manufacturer, has secured £2 million in funding from Humber Freeport to support its investment programme at its site in Hull, UK.

The company plans to make significant investments into its site at King George Dock, the Port of Hull, to expand production capacity and strengthen its presence in the city.

According to AAK, the investment will generate a significant additional tonnage of cargo through the Port of Hull each year, enhancing local supply chain opportunities.

The funding, delivered through Humber Freeport's £25 million seed capital fund, will support the first phase of the investment programme and reduce scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions at the site by 39% per tonne of oil produced, compared with 2025 levels.
