In 2012, the first loading was executed by GRANIMPEKS doo Beograd with 2.381t.

Three foreign buyers purchased grains on FOB Port Senta, till now: CARGILL AGRICULTURA SRL, NIDERA B.V. and ALFRED C. TOEPFER INT. ROMANIA SRL, for which execution six shipping companies entered the river Tisza.

The first loading started with a domestic convoy, owned by YU AGENT doo Bezdan, and than TTS/NAVROM, as the first company with a foreign flag, "broken the ice". First, they sent their barges with the pusher ISTAR, and for the next loading, the convoy came with their MERCUR 101. They were followed by CFND with their TAFs and pusher PETAR I, and in organization by AGENT PLUS doo Beograd, DEIMOS SHIPPING Ltd came with their DSH barges and pusher Hochrein.
