Shetland seafood exports halted by drydock delay

Northwards is continuing to open up Scotland-to-Scandinavia transportation for the aquaculture sector.

Due to the unprecedented rise in global oil prices, and huge volatility in the market, Northwards has been forced, for the first time in its history, to introduce a fuel surcharge.

This month, January 2022, sees the 20th anniversary of Northwards’ establishment. Incredibly, it is 20 years since director Neil Leslie led the management buy-out of the freight division of P&O.

Northwards takes delivery of three of six new vehicles, part of a half million pound investment for the company.

Northwards has announced that it is investing £1.5 million in new vehicles this year, including six new tractor units delivered to Aberdeen.
