The average for this year has been approximately 6,500 containers per week, making this achievement particularly satisfying.

The Baltic Hub is currently implementing a major terminal expansion project, including the construction of a 717-meter-long and 17.5-meter-deep quay capable of accommodating the world’s largest container ships.

As part of this investment, an additional operational area of 36.5 hectares will also be created.
