Samskip has received regulatory approval for the transfer of its transport services between Rotterdam and the UK and Ireland to CLdN. The operational transfer of these services is scheduled to take place on the 29th of June as part of the planned transition process.
Rotterdam to UK and Ireland
The transaction relates specifically to the services between Rotterdam and the UK and Ireland. Samskip continues to offer direct services to and from the UK and Ireland through its wider multimodal and freight forwarding network, while maintaining a strong focus on regional products and logistics solutions across Europe and beyond.
Services from and to the UK and Ireland will continue to be available from Morocco, Portugal, Spain, Iceland, Faroe Islands, Poland, Sweden Norway, Finland and The Baltics.
Sharpened focus
The completion of this transaction allows Samskip to sharpen its focus and accelerate strategic initiatives aimed at delivering greater value across its European network.
‘Our industry continues to evolve rapidly, and successful organisations must evolve with it,’ says Ólafur Orri Ólafsson, CEO of Samskip. ‘This milestone allows us to focus our efforts on what matters most to our customers: reliable services, strong regional expertise, and a seamless multimodal network that helps simplify increasingly complex supply chains.’
Looking ahead, Samskip will focus on three key priorities: Customer centricity, reliability by enhancing service consistency, operational performance, and supply chain predictability, and strength by focusing on regional expertise and local products across key markets, including the Nordics, Baltics, Southern Europe and Morocco.
