Port of Antwerp

Le site du Port d'Anvers.

The Port of Antwerp is the gateway to Europe, handling more than 180 million tonnes of freight annually, with the figure rising each year. Antwerp is the second largest port in Europe for international shipping freight and the fourth largest in the world.

Its central position in North-West Europe and its excellent connections with the most important centres of industry and consumption in Europe have led to Antwerp becoming a very important link in the chain of international trade.

But the port is much more than just a loading and unloading point: here, goods are also stored, repacked, distributed and made ready for transport to their final destinations.
