The expansion of the Port of Hirtshals has moved one step closer following the city council's decision that the Municipality of Hjørring will carry out a pre-debate and host a public meeting on the big port project. Managing director Per Holm Nørgaard looks forward to the debate.

The curve is broken and is now moving in the right direction for the Port of Hirtshals as the numbers of passengers and cars passing through the port hit record highs in July 2022. More than 190,000 cars and around 630,000 passengers used the port which is considerable progress. This suggests that the pent-up desire to travel from the last couple of years has finally been released, the director of the port, Per Holm Nørgaard, explains.

The Iceland Ocean Cluster is pleased to announce the start of a new initiative to create Danish Ocean Cluster in Denmark in collaboration with the Port of Hirtshals and the North Sea Science Park. The main mission of this new cluster initiative is to promote and foster developments among the seafood entrepreneurs and collaborate on furthering the Iceland Ocean Cluster model in Denmark.
