A new freight service will commence at the turn of the year, linking Gothenburg to the industrialised Western Region in Norway via the ports in Stavanger, Bergen, Sunndal and Ålesund. The rotation will also include the Polish port of Swinoujscie, which will in turn open up further trade options with central Europe. Vessels will visit Gothenburg on a weekly basis.
The service will be operated by the Norwegian shipping company Sea Cargo, which has its headquarters on the west coast of Norway. In preparation for the project, Sea Cargo will open an office at the Port of Gothenburg to establish even closer operational links.
“Most of the freight was previously transported by road but now we have a sustainable short-sea solution. We are pleased to be able to broaden our service base, generating new opportunities for many,” said Jacob Minnhagen, senior market development manager at the Gothenburg Port Authority. (cd)
