“As we move closer towards Britain’s exit from the European Union we will need to navigate change and uncertainty, both locally and nationally.
“Our strong business model, coupled with our dedicated port team, leave me in no doubt that Foyle Port has the flexibility needed to adapt to a new commercial context and the innovation needed to capitalise on all new opportunities arising in the future.”
