As 2024 drew to a close, the Grimaldi Shipping Line vessel Grande New York called at the Montoir de Bretagne ro-ro terminal inbound from Turkey, carrying an exceptional cargo of Dacia and Renault vehicles. The ship unloaded a total of 3 102 vehicles, setting a new record for the ro-ro terminal.

The handling was carried out by Somaloir, whose expertise ensured efficient and safe unloading. GCA’s teams also played a crucial role, working hard to find the necessary parking spaces for these vehicles destined for the French market.

This record-breaking operation evidences the ro-ro terminal’s ability to handle large volumes, and the commitment of its teams to meeting their customers’ logistical needs. The success of this port call reinforces the terminal’s position as a strategic hub for vehicle imports into France.
