The Arctic Gateway via the Port of Belledune

The Belledune Port Authority (BPA) officially launched a micro web-site to promote Arctic Shipping.

“www.thearcticgateway.ca is a fantastic new way for the Port of Belledune to demonstrate what it has to offer,” says Jenna Doucet, BPA Director of Marketing. “Arctic shipping is being discussed more frequently and is becoming a reality for the shipping community. The Port of Belledune offers some great advantages that shippers and shipping lines can take advantage of.”

The Port of Belledune offers a longer shipping season to northern regions while providing a congestion-free port. The intermodal accessibility makes bringing cargo from any interior market possible; the efficiency of the stevedores, tugs and equipment operators makes shipping from Belledune more than ideal!

The Port of Belledune is a year-round marine transport facility with a modern, deep water point of access to key northern markets. The Port has developed strategic partnerships to facilitate problem solving for complex needs within transportation, logistics and the handling of challenging project cargo. The Port of Belledune is the most flexible choice for moving project cargo into the Eastern Arctic, Newfoundland and Labrador
