Wallenius Wilhelmsen has won the procurement and, as of February 2026, will operate the Port of Gothenburg's vehicle & ro-ro terminal for the following 12 years.

The Norwegian-Swedish shipping line will also invest almost €6.0 million in modernising the terminal's areas, buildings, and other infrastructure.

The terminal in question offers two berthing places, 240 thousand square metres of space, is rail-connected, and features facilities for pre-delivery inspection. Apart from vehicles (including heavy-duty machinery for, among others, the mining industry) and ro-ro cargo units, the terminal also handles project cargo (such as wind turbine components, transformers, and house modules).

"We are excited to have been appointed as the terminal operator at the Port of Gothenburg. Our ability to provide seamless and efficient logistics solutions will contribute to further developing the Port of Gothenburg as the leading vehicle and ro-ro terminal. We look forward to serving the Scandinavian market, while supporting our vision of innovative and sustainable growth," said John Felitto, COO Logistics Services at Wallenius Wilhelmsen.

The Port of Gothenburg's CEO, Göran Eriksson, added, "We are very optimistic about Wallenius Wilhelmsen's ability to continue developing the vehicle and ro-ro terminal at the Port of Gothenburg. The company has presented a strong business plan and has credibly demonstrated how they will achieve the volume targets they have committed to and operate a competitive terminal with a customer-centric approach."

The terminal in question has been since 2011 operated by Logent Ports and Terminals.
