The Dysnes harbour site is a green-field industrial area in N-Iceland, located 15km to the north of Akureyri. Building on strong industry and fisheries tradition in the area, the site is being developed to welcome various sectors active in the arctic, eg mining, oil exploration and research.
Akureyri is the most densely populated area in Iceland outside of the greater Reykjavik area. The region’s geographic location is central to Arctic operations, offering a vibrant local economy, a modern hospital, a university, an international airport, excellent harbour facilities and extensive possibilities for expansion in a fast changing global environment.
The region is home to the largest companies in ship maintenance and services in Iceland, as well as building on over 40 years of aviation and medical services to Greenland. The location offers direct international shipping links, with two companies servicing Europe on a weekly basis.
