The country's freight profile combines the Port Talbot works (Tata Steel UK), where the last blast furnace closed in September 2024 and an electric arc furnace is due by the end of 2027, the Airbus wing-manufacturing facility at Broughton, Newport's semiconductor cluster (the fab there has been Vishay's since 2024), and the Valleys' growing renewable-energy supply chain. Cardiff adds financial-services IT and creative-industries freight.
