CEO Dennis Jul Pedersen said at Port Esbjerg’s Annual Meeting held on 23 June, that the deepening of the fairway, which is expected to be completed in the spring of 2024, brings new perspectives.
“Last year, Europe exported goods to the USA at a value of USD 527 billion. Obviously, we would like to see a lot of that go through Port Esbjerg, and that’s what we’re planning for. In fact, we’ve made a commitment to the EU that the number of RoRo calls will be quadrupled over the next ten years,” said Jul Pedersen, emphasising that the RoRo segment will be a focal point for Port Esbjerg in the near future.
Last year, the EU gave Port Esbjerg a grant of DKK 211 million to deepen the fairway. (EUR 28.3 million).
