Bristol Port has received a first shipment of Mazda cars from Japan after the manufacturer chose it for its new direct UK import route.
Mooring at Bristol’s Royal Portbury Dock last Monday (March 28), the NOCC Atlantic delivered 2,355 cars to Mazda’s new automotive port handling centre within the Bristol Port Company estate.
The opening shipment is the first time Mazda UK has imported directly to these shores, and sees Bristol Port become Mazda’s fourth port of entry in Europe, joining Barcelona, Antwerp and Zeebrugge.
