The cruise port operator Global Ports Holding (GPH) has signed a 20-year-long agreement with the Port of Kalundborg to provide services for cruise passengers.

GPH will take over the Danish port's cruise operations before the end of the current fiscal year.

The company will also invest up to €6.0m by 2025 into a purpose-built cruise terminal.

Kalungborg will become GPH's first port in the Northern Europe cruise market.

In 2019, the Port of Kalundborg commissioned a 500 m-long cruise quay.

"[...] we are very much looking forward to working with the port authority, cruise lines, and local stakeholders as we introduce and transform the charming destination of Kalundborg into a sustainable port of turnaround and visit for the region. We believe that the enhanced cruise port facilities will deliver a great experience for all passengers visiting Kalundborg," Emre Sayin, GPH's CEO, commented.
