European Facilities and Agents
Geest Line's port facilities in Portsmouth and Le Havre are modern, secure terminals tailored to the needs of a deep-sea liner service.At Portsmouth, Geest Line has a purpose-built 16,000 sq. ft. warehouse, a lorry park, paved container handling area and weighbridge, besides a considerable amount of temperature controlled storage for the banana trade. Facilities are manned six days a week for receiving general cargo and quayside facilities including heavy lift container cranes that can handle up to 64 tonnes . The terminal, operated by MMD Shipping Services, is situated close to a motorway network that links Portsmouth with regions throughout the UK. In Le Havre, Geest Line operations are centred on the Qai de l'Atlantique, which has several berths and a fleet of quayside cranes and associated handling equipment.
The Quai de l'Atlantique is well served by reefer facilities for containers and there is also comprehensive port equipment for handling heavy lifts. Geest Line cargo loaded at Le Havre is carried exclusively in containers, with the exception of vehicles, and the Port of Le Havre is strategically placed for markets throughout Northern and Central Europe.
French connections place Le Havre only two hours away from Paris and extensive road and rail links offer efficient links to other key regions of France and the Low Countries
