CLdN expands service between Belgium and England

European multimodal logistics provider CLdN has decided to increase the frequency and freight capacity on its Zeebrugge-Teesport route.

The company said this increase is driven by growing customer demand for the service which provides direct access for freight units to and from North East England and Scotland.

The increased frequency will come into effect from the end of February and will be achieved through a combination of adding an extra round trip sailing per week and by deploying higher capacity ships on the route.

The addition of two very large RoRo newbuilds to CLdN’s fleet later this year is expected to enhance CLdN’s ability to ship unaccompanied freight across the North Sea with lower CO2 emissions.

The company noted that at Zeebrugge, customers can place their cargo in one terminal hub and choose to ship to any one of CLdN’s terminals on the East coast of England: Purfleet, Killingholme (Humberside) and Teesport, offering significant ‘last mile’ logistics benefits.

Florent Maes, CEO of CLdN, stated: “CLdN continues to invest heavily in both its fleet and port infrastructure, and we are glad to see increased customer support for our freight routes from Zeebrugge to East Coast UK. We were pleased to underline our long-term commitment to providing an extensive service to customers for shipping freight between the United Kingdom and European Union at a meeting with the UK government Maritime Minister, Mike Kane MP, in Purfleet last week.”
