Norfolkline group statistics

As part of the A.P. Møller – Maersk Group, Norfolkline are committed to establishing continuous growth throughout the organisation, and as a result of this commitment we have achieved substantial growth in recent years.

With the transport of 2.4 million passengers, more than 700,000 vehicles and 1.3 million trailers, productivity and capacity utilisation improved in 2008 compared to 2007.

Profit before financial items rose in 2008, due to gains on the sale of two ships that have both been chartered back for a period, but profit excluding sales gains was somewhat below 2007, being negatively influenced by the economic slowdown in Great Britain, higher fuel costs and exchange rate effects resulting from the weakened pound sterling.
