About This Seaport

Six quays totalling about a kilometre and a fairway deepened to roughly 11 m equip Pietarsaari — Jakobstad in Swedish — as a specialised forest-products port on Finland's west coast. The terminal, run largely by Euroports, moves around 1.3 million tonnes a year, dominated by sawn timber, pulp, paper, cement and lye. Weekly ro-ro and lo-lo services give exporters fast access to mainland Europe, with Wallenius SOL among the lines calling. The adjacent Alholmen industrial park, home to a pulp and paper mill, feeds cargo straight onto the quay and underpins the port's specialised profile. This is not an international container gateway, so deep-sea boxes are handled elsewhere. Road and rail link the harbour to the Finnish interior, supporting timber inflows and finished-product exports. Shippers needing containers or mixed cargo can use Rauma to the south, while nearby Kokkola handles heavier dry-bulk and transit flows.
