The Port of Liverpool, like many of our port locations, is a story of success over three centuries that the city can be proud of. Today it remains one of the most important trading hubs in the UK.

The investments the business has made in technology, facilities and people have meant the port has increased in capacity, attracting more business opportunities and enabling the growth of import and export of goods.

Despite the pandemic, our operations at the Port of Liverpool have created an extra 200 jobs, taking the number of people employed to 1,200. Over 80% of these jobs are held by people who live near the port.

Jobs also create opportunities for skills and personal development. We have partnerships with educational institutions, such as Hugh Baird College in Sefton and the University of Liverpool Management School. These help us to nurture talent and be more creative in finding solutions to the challenges we all face.
