ParkerSteel celebrates new partnership with Port of Dover


ParkerSteel Ltd, a steel stockholder and processor in the southeast, and the Port of Dover, the UK’s most popular ferry port renowned for its cargo business, are pleased to announce a strategic partnership to advance both organisations’ growth objectives and capitalise on their shared values and expertise. 

The Port of Dover, due to its strategic geographical location as the shortest crossing point to Europe, has historically served as a vital trade link. Today, it continues to play an integral role as a transportation and trade hub, connecting industries across the UK with global suppliers.  

"This strategic partnership represents a significant milestone in ensuring the stability and efficiency of our operations, allowing us to provide our customers with uninterrupted service and consistent stock availability throughout the year,” said Dylan Alexander, Managing Director of ParkerSteel. “The Port of Dover's established track record of reliability and resilience, combined with our shared commitment to delivering exceptional service and value, will undoubtedly set new benchmarks for excellence in the steel industry."  

Alison Hall, the Head of Business Development of Port of Dover Cargo, said: "The Port of Dover has gone from strength to strength in recent years, seeing the diversification of our cargo business to become a pinnacle port in the UK for the import of European and International steel.  

“Our newly announced partnership agreement represents another step forward for both organisations in creating an import hub for steel and strengthens our strategy to grow our presence in supporting the construction sector in the Southeast, which signals a win for the local businesses that are served by ParkerSteel.  

At the Port of Dover, the exchange of ideas and innovation is essential to the work we do as a game-changing cargo terminal, and we’re thrilled to be working with ParkerSteel to deliver supply chain resilience through our shared vision and ambitions over the coming years."  

This partnership solidifies the long-standing relationship between ParkerSteel and the Port of Dover, opening up exciting opportunities for growth and collaboration.
