Visby is a classic cruise destination, with a new terminal set to increase flows of tourists in 2018. The tourism industry on the island is now getting ready to receive cruise passengers in the optimum way.
For the first time ever, representatives from all of Sweden’s ports gathered at the Ministry of Industry, Employment and Communication in Stockholm last week. The reason was that the Minister for Infrastructure, Tomas Eneroth, had invited them to attend a meeting to discuss the ports’ role in the future transport system.
Visby's new cruise ship terminal is scheduled to open in the near future. CMP will be responsible for operations at this location, where the number of passengers is expected to double in 2018 compared to this year. This larger number of arrivals is mainly down to the fact that Visby is now able to welcome larger vessels.
CMP has received Stema Shipping as a tenant since December.
Increased volumes and new types of freight. This is the result thus far of CMP’s collaboration with SCA Logistics. Malmö is the hub for environmentally-friendly local shipping, which transports everything from paper products and new cars to large machinery and recycled fibre.
Christmas is bringing cruise passengers to Copenhagen. This year there will be more Christmas and New Year cruises than usual. This December CMP will be welcoming around 6,000 passengers, who will visit attractions including the classic Christmas market at Tivoli.
CMP’s focus on delivering logistical solutions to the construction industry is bearing fruit. There is a high level of interest in this new area, as not only are we able to offer large areas in central locations in Copenhagen, but we can also deliver solutions in the form of managing our customers’ logistics terminal so that they can concentrate on construction.
Visby's new cruise ship quay will soon be ready. Building work commenced in winter 2016 as part of a process that will reach its end in March 2018, when CMP takes over the facilities. The first cruise ship is scheduled to arrive at the new ultra-modern terminal just a few weeks later.
CMP is a hub for handling concrete panels and it is currently operating flat out. By mid-January 8,000 tonnes will have been unloaded in Malmö. The fact that CMP has become a hub is down to the port’s strategic location in an expansive region – but also to the top class service with minimal damage to goods.
CMP, as part of Malmö Industrial Park, will participate in the Gothenburg Transport & Logistics trade fair on 7 - 8 November. Together with the City of Malmö, Skanska, Catena Fastigheter and Invest in Skåne, we will be waiting at stand A03:02 to show you the opportunities available in Norra hamnen in Malmö.
