About Us

Aabenraa Port is a central part of Southern Jutland's business community. The port connects the region with the outside world and creates the framework for growth, security of supply, and employment.

As Southern Jutland's commercial port, Aabenraa Port operates as a municipal autonomous port – 100% owned by Aabenraa Municipality, but economically and administratively separate from the municipality. All revenue goes to operations, maintenance, and development of the port's facilities.

The board consists of both political representatives from the city council and external members with business expertise. The board determines the strategic direction, while daily operations are handled by the port's management and employees.

Aabenraa Port has throughout history been closely connected to the city's development. Today it is a modern port facility with specialties in bulk and project cargo. Companies at the port range from raw material suppliers to players in the energy and transport sectors.

The port also contributes to the local community through sponsorships and collaborations with associations and projects in the municipality.
