Port of Antwerp receives Chinese Shipping Star Award
Flanders Investment and Trade: Port of Antwerp receives Chinese Shipping Star Award
Chinese Internet site ‘ShippingChina’ has awarded the Port of Antwerp with a ‘Shipping Star Award’ in the ‘Foreign Ports’ category. The ranking was based on votes cast by (among others) traders, freight forwarders and logistics companies in China. This is the fifth year that the awards have been given out. Two years ago, the Port of Antwerp only came in 16th, whereas last year it took second place. This year Antwerp succeeded in defeating Hamburg and took the number one position. The sharp rise up this ranking is testimony to the constant quality improvement efforts of the Port of Antwerp management and personnel.
The criteria for this award include efficiency of operation, the level of port dues, the provision of information, an ability to deal with unforeseen problems and the degree of international standardization.
