“This new route between Le Havre and Rosslare is an important step. France’s leading port needed to have its own freight link to Ireland. Economically, it’s obvious. In almost a year, the number of freight vehicles transported by sea from Ireland has tripled. I have no doubt that this increased interest in the maritime route and the new Le Havre-Rosslare service are destined for a bright future. But it’s also strategically essential for our Company: we must be present wherever there is a real potential for growth as part of our return to competitiveness.”
– Jean-Marc Roué, Chairman of Brittany Ferries
“This new service consolidates our partnership with Brittany Ferries, a specialist in cross-channel traffic, reinforcing its presence in Le Havre. It meets the expectations of shippers and hauliers in the post-Brexit context: a direct maritime link to the Greater Paris consumer area and its Rung is wholesale market. This roll-on freight service supplements HAROPA PORT’S deepsea and shortsea offerings and provides an additional solution for supply chain optimization. It also makes the basing of warehousing in our local area even more relevant.”
