Hutchison Ports signs operating contract for Norvik Port
Hutchison Ports has signed a formal agreement with Ports of Stockholm to operate the container terminal under construction at Stockholm Norvik Port. The new port, which is near Nynäshamn, 60km south of the Swedish capital, will have better access, deeper water and greater capacity than the city centre facilities it will replace. Speaking after the signing, Clemence Cheng, Managing Director Hutchison Ports Europe, said: “We are delighted to complete the formal agreement to operate at Stockholm Norvik Port. The new facility will be the nearest container terminal to the Greater Stockholm area which generates 45% of Swedish GDP. As the only deep-water container facility on the East Coast of Sweden, Norvik Port will deliver both economic and environmental benefits by reducing overland transport, bringing ships and cargo closer to the country’s largest market.” http://www.hellenicshippingnews.com/hutchison-ports-signs-operating-contract-for-norvik-port/
