    Autumn 2015 OVERVIEW Portsmouth International Port is the UK’s premier port for the western channel and second busiest cross channel ferry port overall. It is market led and committed to long-term growth through the development of infrastructure and resources in line with market needs. In January 2011, the Port was renamed Portsmouth International Port, having been Portsmouth Continental Ferry Port. This was to reflect the increasing importance that Portsmouth is playing in the international shipping stage. The Port comprises The Ferry Port – opened in 1976 – served by passenger and freight ferries sailing to the Continent and the Channel Islands. Regular destinations currently include: Caen Bilbao Cherbourg Le Havre St Helier St. Malo St Peter Port Santander Flathouse and Albert Johnson Quays As a result of considerable investment by lessee MMD, this area of the Port has been developed into a state of the art fruit importing facility, currently handling almost 606,605 tonnes of quality fruit a year. 70% of all bananas consumed in the UK now arrive via Portsmouth along with all of the UK’s Moroccan citrus fruit. Portsmouth City Council purchased MMD Shipping Services on 29 February 2008. The purchase of MMD will help safeguard the business’s position as a significant importer of 1 goods into the UK and therefore help maintain the status of Portsmouth as an important commercial port in the UK. In addition, ownership of MMD will bring strategic benefits, as the Port will have control over the facilities and working practices at the company. This will allow the Port to develop the business in line with expected changes to the fruit importing business over the next 15-20 years, and explore new options for short sea shipping and cruise traffic.

Robin des Bois counted 293 vessels sold for demolition in 2006, 288 in 2007 and 456 in 2008. In 2009, 1,006 vessels have left the waters, representing more than twice the 2008 total and three times the 2006 total. The total weight of recycled metal reached more than 8.2 million tons, five times the total amount of 2006. During this record year the pace of vessels leaving the oceans during the summer months has barely slowed down. The worldwide financial crisis weighed considerably on trade exchange; big ship owners have massively sent for demolition their oldest ships to adapt to the dropping of freight rates and to draw benefits from their recent ships.
