Lifting global trade with APM Terminals WĂƚƌŝŬ dŚƵůŝŶ͕ ŚŝĞĨ ŽŵŵĞƌĐŝĂů Kĸ ĐĞƌ Ăƚ APM Terminals, Gothenburg, talks to Consultant Editor David Young

ith world headquarters in The Hague, Netherlands, the company’s core expertise is the design, construction, management and operation of ports, terminals and inland services with a Global Terminal Network, including interests in 70 port facilities in 40 countries and Inland Services operations in 160 locations in 48 countries. The Port of Gothenburg handles much of Sweden’s trade in paper and forestry products and its Skandia Container Terminal was acquired by APM Terminals in January, 2012. Patrik Thulin was responsible November 2012

for marketing the facilities and services of the terminal when it was owned by Skandia and has continued in this role for APM Terminals. Q. Although APM Terminals operates as an independent division within the Maesk Group, does your work involve regular ĐŽůůĂďŽƌĂƟ ŽŶ ǁŝƚŚ ŽƚŚĞƌ 'ƌŽƵƉ companies such as the shipping lines? A. Our business plan is based on an independent company – in fact our headquarters is in The Hague, Netherlands – not Copenhagen, which allows us to expand our client portfolio beyond Maersk Line. Maersk

Line is clearly one of our largest customers, but no business is guaranteed – we have to compete just like every other port operator. What’s important to remember is that Maersk Line is the largest customer for every port operator too. Q. APM Terminals was founded by A.P. Moller in New York over 50 years ago, but became part of the Copenhagen-based Maesk Group in 2001. Why was your headquarters moved to The Hague in the Netherlands just three years later? A. We moved the company to The Hague to be closer to the liner and port market and

Patrik Thulin. support our business strategy as an independent company. The Hague is a very international city and has easy access to Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam allowing us to be anywhere in the world with direct flights. Plus, the closeness of Rotterdam as Europe’s top port is attractive too.
