Verdi, ZDS reach agreement after five rounds of negotiations
NewsThe German union Verdi and ZDS reached a new labour agreement for 11,500 North Sea port workers, pending a member vote.
The CMA CGM-owned shortsea specialist will make all its Hamburrg calls at C Steinweg’s Süd-West-Terminal
The first vessel call at Süd-West-Terminal (SWT) is scheduled for 11th October and will be made by the 925 TEU DP LEGACY. The vessel is deployed in the recently expanded CISS service and will head for Rotterdam after leaving Hamburg.
SWT is a multi-purpose terminal with good conditions for handling short sea vessels. Situated in the heart of the port, the terminal has more than 21-ha of operational area with excellent road and railway connection as well as 65,000 m2 of covered warehouse space and up to six berths along the 1350m long quay. A container repair and storage depot is also available.
OPDR is already familiar with C Steinweg as all its Rotterdam calls are handled by the Dutch company's Rotterdam Short Sea Terminal.
Till Ole Barrelet, CEO of OPDR, said: “We look forward to our new partnership with C. Steinweg. The Süd-West-Terminal offers very good conditions that meet all the infrastructural requirements of OPDR.”
OPDR has been calling at Buss Hansa Terminal, but this is being closed down.
