The terminal container NFTI supplies to customers a direct access to the markets of the North of France and Central Europe.
Grand Port maritime de Dunkerque unveiled its NFTI (Nord France Terminal International) container terminal.
With 1,200 metres of quayside, ultra-modern super post panamax gantry cranes, five gantry cranes of which three are latest-generation, and 700 reefer sockets, the NFTI container terminal offers its customers direct access to the markets of Northern France, the Greater Paris area and Central Europe by road, rail and inland waterway.
Dunkirk is one of Europe's few natural deepwater ports, and is the ideal choice for maritime operators due to its strategic position on the world's busiest seaway. Its technical characteristics and its location give it excellent potential for development.
