The solar eclipse has captured attention across the UK. Suddenly, eclipse glasses have gone from niche product to high demand must-have.

When public interest in an event suddenly spikes, supply chains need to move just as quickly. Products have to be positioned, transported and made available where demand emerges, often within very short timeframes.

It's a reminder that modern supply chains aren't just about efficiency. They're about agility and the ability to respond when consumer behaviour shifts unexpectedly. Which is why we are focused on building the connected logistics networks that help businesses adapt to the ever-changing market.

As we continue progressing the development of our fifth container berth at London Gateway, we are pleased to confirm that the marine piling works have now been completed, marking a significant milestone in the project.

The construction of the new quay wall, including the installation of steel tubular piles, has been a major component of these works. All piles have now been successfully driven, and we sincerely appreciate your patience and support throughout this phase.

Once operational, the new berth will boost the local economy, strengthen supply chain resilience, and increase capacity to accommodate the world’s largest vessels.

We were delighted to host the Mayor of Thurrock, Sue Shinnick, for her annual fundraising event at our London Gateway logistics park for her chosen charity, MCA Trust.

Guests, including many local mayors and councillors, attended to help raise vital funds and awareness. They heard an inspirational speech from the Chairman of the MCA Trust about the amazing work they do within the community, and enjoyed a traditional afternoon tea, before heading out on a tour of our port and logistics park.

At the Port of Southampton, we recently supported the bunkering of the Svitzer Bargate using 100% Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) in place of conventional diesel, marking a meaningful step forward in reducing emissions from harbour towage operations.

The emissions savings from this activity form part of the last nautical mile carbon inset credits under our Carbon Inset Programme, enabling cargo owners to actively reduce supply chain emissions at the source.

Our collaboration with Svitzer to expand the use of lower-carbon fuels, could avoid more than 900 metric tonnes of CO₂e annually, creating measurable emissions savings and helping customers to meet their Scope 3 goals.

Learn how we can help reduce emissions across your supply chain:
