Ports of Stockholm has invested in a modern facility at Stockholm Norvik Port that offers a combination of a control point for authorities and warehouse management.
A heated and insulated section, as well as an uninsulated section, equip the facility, making it possible to handle and store both temperature-sensitive goods and regular storage.
“We are very pleased to be able to offer our customers a modern goods terminal and bonded warehouse directly adjacent to Stockholm Norvik Port,” said Johan Wallén, Marketing and Sales Manager at Ports of Stockholm.
“The facility is an important part of our strategy to improve and expand our service. It will be a great asset for customers who need a secure and efficient logistics solution for their warehouse management.
“The terminal is adaptable, which enables flexible solutions and the handling of different types of goods.”

The Swedish Food Agency, the Swedish Board of Agriculture and the Swedish Customs use a large part of the facility as a bonded warehouse. It offers ample space for inspections and temporary storage.
Stockholm Norvik Port is one of five ports in Sweden that has a border control for food. This means that food imported from countries outside the EU can undergo border control on site.
“Having an improved inspection site for the Swedish Customs, the Swedish Board of Agriculture and the Swedish Food Agency at Stockholm Norvik Port is a major advantage for us and our customers,” Wallén continued.
“It streamlines the process, increases security and improves quality control. It also saves time and money for importers and exporters, making us a more attractive and competitive port.”
Late last year, Ports of Stockholm announced it is launching an innovative project that combines onshore power supply (OPS) and microgrid technology with its partners.
