Port of Boulogne-sur-Mer

Surrounding the port, the Capécure industrial zone is Europe’s main hub for processing and marketing seafood products: it supports over 5,000 jobs and handles more than 300,000 tonnes of seafood products each year. This agri-food cluster brings together fishmongers, processors, logistics providers, researchers and distributors, strengthening its European presence.

The port also offers a ferry line – dedicated to both tourism and freight – linking Boulogne-sur-Mer to Cork on the southwest coast of Ireland.

In addition to fishing, the port is also developing commercial port activities (bulk and agri-food) and ship repair, careening and dry docking.
