“Through a systematic selection process, the company chosen to handle Keitele Group’s container volumes as a port operator is one that offers a high-quality and well-suited infrastructure, as well as a wide range of logistic service functions. We expect from the cooperation starting on January 1, 2024, not only a reliable, high-quality, and flexible service, but also the ability to respond to the service needs brought by growing volumes in the future. In addition to the points mentioned above, we will also emphasize Rauanheimo’s environmental performance and responsibility issues,” says Keitele Group Supply Chain Director Matti Alanen.
