Maritime & Logistics
The Maritime and Logistics sector within Norfolk and Suffolk has a workforce of 48,700 and 4,100 enterprises. Norwich is close to several key maritime and logistic locations, including Lowestoft (the most Easterly town in England!) which offers a wide range of extensive marine leisure facilities. Great Yarmouth and King’s Lynn are also close by.
Great Yarmouth is Britain’s principal port for the Southern North Sea Oil & Gas and renewable energy industries. It boasts a modern multipurpose facility consisting of a river port, and a deep water outer harbour. King’s Lynn is a regional hub for agricultural products, which offers extensive handling and storage facilities.
There are also a series of smaller ports, including Wells-next-the-Sea, which service wind farm workers, and coastal harbours which support leisure, tourism and fishing.
