Missions and ambitions

The activity of HAROPA - Port du Havre is structured around four main missions:
 

• define and implement marketing and sales strategies,
• receive ships,
• facilitate the passage of goods through the port,
• receive and live on the estate.

THE AMBITIONS OF HAROPA-PORT DU HAVRE:

The development policy for port activities is based on a strategic project. The main objective of this project is to strengthen Le Havre's position and attractiveness as one of the top 5 ports in Western Europe. The strategic project also aims to increase employment and local wealth in a spirit of sustainable development. It thus participates in the development of HAROPA, the 1st French port complex formed by the three ports of the Seine Axis: LE HAVRE - ROUEN - PARIS.

Main strategic axes:

• to focus our action primarily on container activity: a sector that generates significant employment and added value and has the greatest development potential. HAROPA - Port du Havre has identified four main levers for this purpose: 

- the quality of reception of ships 
- the excellence of passage through the port 
- the performance of multimodal solutions 
- structuring the logistics offer. 
 

• consolidate and develop all activities in the other sectors to perpetuate and strengthen our industrial port complex; 
• offer our customers an adapted land offer, allowing the development of their logistics and industrial activities by promoting the conversion of spaces. 
• aim for the ambitious objective of a 10-point increase in the share of inland waterway and rail transport to nearly 25% by acting proactively, with our partners, both on infrastructure and transport services; 
• pursue, at both company and port level, a continuous improvement approach to the performance of port operations; 
• ensure the sustainability of the assets managed by the Port by relying on a recovered self-financing capacity; 
• pursue port development while contributing to the quality of the environmental functions of the Seine estuary.
