Between cargoes of lychees, cars and trailers, the weekend is very busy for the dockers of the port of Sète

Among the cargoes to be unloaded by the dockers of the port of Sète, the lychee cargo extended between Thursday and Sunday. – DR

Between Thursday 5 and Sunday 8 December, the dockers of the port of Sète were somewhat solicited.

Unloading a cargo of trailers, they know how to do it. Unloading a boat loaded with cars is in their habits. Unloading a ship of its cargo of lychees arriving from Madagascar is also within their capabilities. But doing all three in the same day and for four days was the first time for the teams of dockers of the SPS company of the port of Sète.

27 containers of lychees evacuated per hour

So between Thursday 5 and Sunday 8 December, the workforce increased to deal with these three types of goods arriving in the port area of ​​the Singular Island. The most unusual being that of the lychees which were stored in the refrigerated terminal before being transported to the sales sites. “We unloaded 5,400 pallets, explains Jean-Michel Calueba, the assistant secretary of the CFDT, member of SPS. In addition, we had 200 container movements at an average of 27 per hour at the beginning.” Unfortunately, then, with the strong gusts of wind over the weekend, the gantry, managed by the crane operators, often went into safety gear and slowed down operations somewhat. But the entire port community involved around this ship was able to legitimately show its satisfaction at the end of all the operations which ended on Sunday at 8 p.m.
