Business trip to the ports of Gdynia and DCT Gdansk

September 14

PORT GDYNIA – is a modern multi-purpose port located in the Gdansk Bay of the Baltic Sea. It specializes in handling general cargo, mainly containers and bulk cargo, relying on a developed network of multimodal connections with the interior of the country, regular cabotage lines and ferry connections. Transshipment terminals in the port of Gdynia operate 24/7.

DCT GDAŃSK is the largest container terminal on the Baltic Sea. The Baltic Hub is a terminal connecting Asia, the EU, Central and Eastern Europe and the entire Baltic Sea. The terminal is located in the port of Gdańsk, in the heart of the Baltic Sea.

Transshipment of containers takes place on a deep-sea pier, the depth of which reaches 17 meters. Thanks to these navigation parameters, DCT Gdańsk regularly serves the largest container ships in the world. Delivery of goods to the nearest port of destination gives customers the opportunity to optimize the supply chain and reduce transport costs.
