The Mariehamn-based company, owner of the ferry and cruise brands Eckerö Linjen and Birka Cruises, has given notice to its employees following the toll the coronavirus pandemic has taken on the group.
The parties have agreed to re-establish Volvo's train, that in the past connected the company's facilities in Sweden with its factory in the Belgian Ghent, but which has come to a halt because of the coronavirus pandemic.
As a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the ferry service in question, operated by Stena Line, initially suspended on 14 March, is going to be scratched altogether.
The Swedish ferry line has introduced measures aimed at containing the spread of coronavirus, so as to secure traffic to and from the island of Gotland.
The Aachen-based company, specialising in Artificial Intelligence and decision-making optimization software, has launched its very own Business Book Club - specifically targeted at port and terminal managers - in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The combined service, launched in August 2019 in partnership with Modul and Global Ports, saw its first eastbound train dispatched from St. Petersburg on 28 March.
