About

As a result of European developments, it was found essential to create an organisation representing the interests of private port operators, i.e. stevedores and terminal operators, on a European level. This resulted in the foundation of FEPORT on January 13 1993, uniting national and regional representative associations of private port operators in the EU. In this way about 800 individual port operating companies are currently represented. FEPORT’s objectives are: to inform and advise its members on European port-related matters, to discuss and formulate common points of view with regard to European policy matters, to serve as an interlocutor for the EU institutions. The subjects of interest to FEPORT can be grouped in five broad categories : Seaport policy (competition policy) Transport policy Safety and environment Customs and internal market procedures EDI and R&D
