SeaFrance set to move headquarters

SEAFRANCE has announced plans to move its headquarters from the Eastern Docks in Dover to nearby White Cliffs Business Park.

 

The company, which will relocate on October 13, said it had outgrown its current premises. Managing director Robin Wilkins said: "We are an expanding company and for this reason we need bigger premises that would give us an opportunity to expand over the next few years. The introduction of our new ship in September next year will increase our capacity on the Dover-Calais route.”

 

SeaFrance's new ship will have a capacity of up to 1,900 passengers and 700 cars. The yet-to-be-named vessel will bring its fleet up to four.
