Port of Gothenburg – Scandinavia's Logistics Hub

Gothenburg is an unrivaled hub for cargo handling in Scandinavia. Each year, approximately 40 million tons of goods are managed here, and the port employs over 22,000 people. Daily, 70 trains arrive and depart from the Port of Gothenburg, serving 26 inland terminals and covering 33 routes across Sweden and Norway, right up to our quays.

Gothenburg's strategic location makes it the natural intersection point between three of Scandinavia's main capitals, where several European highways converge. Within just 3-4 hours, trucks can reach both Oslo and Copenhagen. Situated at the mouth of the Göta River, the Port of Gothenburg also serves as a hub for short-sea shipping, with traffic from the inland and surrounding coastal areas.
