This monthly service also includes regular calls from the ports of Antwerp (Belgium), Vlissingen and Rotterdam (Netherlands), Hull (United Kingdom), Bridgetown (Barbados) , Georgetown (Guyana), Paramaribo (Suriname), Point Lisas (Trinidad) and Matanzas/Palua (Venezuela) – being one of the few regular lines regularly calling this last country. Serving other destinations such as St. Lucia, St. Vincent, Grenada and Dominica through Bridgetown as hub port.
As a result of reinforcing the regular line from Spain, the most favored sectors will be those related to iron and steel industry, rolling stock and yachts and all kind of manufacturing industry, including project cargo.
In this way, northern Spain is consolidated as the backbone of import and export activity to the Caribbean and northern South America, and places BERGÉ in a prominent position in international markets, especially on the other side of the Atlantic coast.
