Yet another successful shuttle from Piteå to Gothenburg

Last spring, First Row Shipping proved that it is perfectly feasible to transport containerised goods 1,400 kilometres from Piteå to Gothenburg by rail. The newly commissioned shuttle was soon in great demand by industry in Norrland. In a few weeks, First Row Shipping will start a second shuttle to Gothenburg.

"There is a lot of interest in the product. We receive a lot of inquiries from many different markets, which is pleasing. Now that we are reaching a stable frequency of two trains a week, the product is a strong alternative to today's lorry transport. Over time, we plan to have three to four departures," says Nikolas Rowland, founder and owner of First Row Shipping & Logistics AB.

"Collaborating with APM Terminals is great on all levels. The staff are very service-minded and responsive and show great understanding and flexibility, contributing to the success," he concludes.
