A “symbol of equality, inclusion and diversity” made a pitstop in Liverpool during its world tour.
Maersk, a global integrated logistics company, marked its second year supporting Pride in Liverpool as a festival supporter, by making the city the first public stop on its 2022 Pride Month rainbow container roadshow. The 3.7-tonne container, one of several painted in the colour of the pride flag, has been touring the world since 2020 as a symbol of equality, inclusion and diversity and to raise awareness of issues faced by the LGBTQIA+ community.
The rainbow container was welcomed by local Maersk staff, representatives from LCR Pride Foundation, Liverpool City Council and members of the public at Liverpool’s Pier Head. The container is now continuing its tour across various locations in the country as part of its UK leg of the world tour.
