- It is fantastic to be able to present good annual accounts and another record turnover. It is an expression of the fact that we run a healthy business, where we invest in both maintenance and development. The earnings are reinvested in the port, and at the same time we have improved our capital resources through significantly strengthened liquidity - that is, money in the bank, which we can use to settle debts on the new port expansion. It is crucial that we can continue to offer our customers a strong and well-functioning port in the future, says Per Anholm Nørgaard, CEO of the Port of Hirtshals.
