Irish Exporters’ Association boss Simon McKeever says move with be seen as ‘significant loss’ to exporting businesses
Exporters are likely to feel the route’s loss keenly as P&O principally transported freight between the two ports. Simon McKeever, chief executive of the Irish Exporters’ Association, described the news as “a significant loss to exporters”.
P&O explained that Peel had told the shipping company that its current berth would not be available after the end of this year. A Peel Ports spokesman confirmed that the P&O service would no longer call into Liverpool once the existing contract expires at the end of this year. Around 60 jobs are at risk between Britain and Ireland as a result. P&O did not say how many worked in each jurisdiction. The company is beginning consultations with affected workers and says that, where possible, they will be redeployed within the business, or given aid in finding employment elsewhere.
