Summertime in the gate

During the summer of passages reduces the gate substantially. Our customers are taking holidays and we also fit to make. Of course we are not close but we are changing our opening hours at the gate slightly during Week 27 - 32. From 12 July to 15 August the opening hours are 06:15 to 15:45. 

As so often spring rushed by and I wonder where it went. The goal is now that the summer will not disappear as quickly.  While most of us have a long vacation, it's easy to just look forward to the next project instead of enjoying a bit of what we actually managed. So make sure you enjoy it out and take advantage of the summer!

A year ago, we pondered on how low volumes could decline, and if volumes were ever to come back? Now that the economy has reached its lowest and turns upward, you can reflect on how quickly the turn and laugh a little to the anxiety we felt just a year ago. The last three months we have had an average of eight additional stevedores employed every day. Bilvolymerna is the highest in almost three years and also imports container looks very good.

Summer planning is always tough. Everyone wants to be free from midsummer and volumes begin dropping until the second half of July. But with good planning and creative solutions can often solve themselves. This makes it safe this year also.

Have a great summer! / Erik
