Webinar

Please join the Economic Development Partnership of North Carolina’s (EDPNC) International Trade team on Wednesday, October 30, for an informational webinar discussing the Cork-Chester PA-Wilmington NC shipping route.

The Cork-Chester-Wilmington shipping route will provide exporters from both countries a fast and reliable route for their supply-chains. Independent Container Lines (ICL), which runs the route, specializes in Trans-Atlantic shipping and has four ships and five ports of call. The Cork-Chester-Wilmington Shipping Route will support a multitude of different industries including but not limited to: pharmaceuticals, raw materials, and food. It is important to remember that the Port of Cork is planning a major expansion allowing bigger bulk shipments as well as a container terminal.

Representatives from the Port of Cork, Ireland and ICL will discuss the new direct shipping route between Wilmington, NC and Cork, Ireland.
