It will be completed by the end of 2021 – the futureproof, modern, sustainable and automated container terminal in Copenhagen. The terminal substantially strengthens CMP’s role as the leading actor within freight handling in the capital region and throughout Eastern Denmark.

When the location of Lindbäcks’ new production facility was being chosen, the transport logistics were an important element of the supporting data for the decision. The choice made was Haraholmen in Piteå, with the proximity to Piteå Port and the opportunity for maritime transport operations being major factors. Production has now been up and running for eight months, and this week Lindbäcks shipped its first load by sea. “We loaded and dispatched 85 units down to Lund. Marine transport is an excellent complement to road transport, so we’re now conducting a first test,” says Lars Wallgren, Logistics Manager.

This week, the annual general meeting was held in Copenhagen Malmö Port, CMP, where the profit/annual accounts for 2017 was approved. 2017 was a good year for CMP. Turnover increased from SEK 812 million to SEK 839 million. Freight volumes ended up at about the same level as in 2016. At the same time the cruise segment again broke records and made a substantial contribution to the increased turnover. All in all, operating income improved by SEK 35 million at SEK 78 million.

The new cruise quay in Visby was opened today in connection with the visit to the port of the ship AIDAdiva.

Mercedes-Benz Försäljnings AB is establishing a base in the port area in Malmö and thereby strengthening its collaboration with CMP.

There is considerable market demand for international rail shuttle services.
