The Irish Sea Hub Advantage
As a more sustainable alternative to the traditional and congested southern UK routes, our ports at Greenock, Liverpool and Dublin Container Terminal, provide retailers and cargo owners with greater flexibility and choice in optimising their cargo flows into the UK – by getting closer to the end destination, by sea.
Retailers can green up their supply chains, using the Irish Hub to remove trucks off the road, reducing road miles, congestion and avoiding costly delays.
The Irish Sea Hub achieves an 80% laden import-export balance for existing customers, compared to just 50% at south-east-based ports.
• A unique, one-stop-shop for services across the Irish Sea.
• Peel Ports Group serves as a feeder hub for the Irish Sea.
• Connected by BG Freight Line.
