Port of Gdynia Authority

The adoption of the Act of 23 September 1922 on the construction of the port is considered the formal beginning of the Port of Gdynia, which is four years older than the city itself. Container handling began at a temporary base at the Polish Quay in 1972, and a container terminal at the Hel Quay was completed in 1979.

The state enterprise Morski Port Handlowy Gdynia was commercialized in 1991 and Port Gdynia Holding S.A. was created in 1996. The Port of Gdynia Authority S.A. was established on 30.11.1999 under the Act on Sea Ports and Harbours and in 2000 incorporated Port of Gdynia Holding S.A., with operational activities separated into distinct companies.
