About This Seaport
Anchoring Norway's Sunnmøre seafood cluster, Ålesund ranks among the country's busiest fishing and seafood ports, opening directly onto the Norwegian Sea and the wider North Atlantic. Its logistics are built around chilled and frozen cargo: Maersk has built a large modern cold-storage facility at Flatholmen quay, with around 12,000 m² of temperature-controlled space and capacity for over 33,000 pallets, reinforcing reefer supply chains for salmon and whitefish exports. Beyond seafood, the port moves hydraulic machinery, shipbuilding products and furniture, handling bulk, breakbulk and a modest container volume on the order of 40,000 to 50,000 TEU a year. In the city centre, the Stornespiren/Prestebrygga terminal also serves a busy cruise trade. Customs and export clearance for seafood are well established, reflecting the port's strong orientation towards fish-product trade. For pure deep-sea container volumes, shippers tend to use Oslo or feeder links to Rotterdam and Bremerhaven, with Bergen as a regional alternative.
