Port of Gothenburg wins communications award
The Port of Gothenburg has won the IAPH 'Port Communications Award' for the best port communications in the world, the company said in its press release.
The Port of Gothenburg came away with gold when the international port organisation IAPH presented the award for the best communications initiative of the year. It won the award for its 'Made in Sweden' web concept.
'Made in Sweden' is a web solution that in a simple yet effective way demonstrates the importance of an efficient logistics chain and the significance of the Port of Gothenburg to Swedish industry. The series focuses on Swedish export companies and their products, including Absolut Vodka, Billerud Korsnäs and Volvo, to demonstrate how the products are transported by sea to cities such as New York, London and Tokyo.
The Port Communications Award was established in 2011 to enhance communication at the world's ports and to highlight the impact of innovative communication when explaining how essential ports are to world development.
IAPH is an international association of ports and maritime organisations. The association has around 350 members from some 90 countries. IAPH promotes collaboration between ports, acts as a consultative body for the UN and plays a key role in developing international trade and maritime policy.
