“We are very pleased to welcome Jean-Jacques and Lukasz in our team”, said Boris Wenzel, CEO of DCT Gdansk. “DCT Gdansk will initiate a large scale expansion program to accommodate the rapidly growing demand for direct calls into the Baltic Sea. As Asia – Europe shipping routes are now splitting into Asia – West Europe and Asia – Baltic, DCT aims to allow more shipping lines and their clients to achieve substantial savings to reach Poland, Russia and the rest of the CEE via Gdansk.
DCT will develop new berths for the next generation of container vessels and plans to increase its capacity potential to 4 million TEU within this decade. Gdansk will soon join the major league ports club and we are bringing in major league talent in our management team.”
