Hapag-Lloyd will start calling at the Port of Baltimore in February as the first U.S. port of call on its Gulf of Mexico Express from North Europe to the U.S. East Coast and to American and Mexican ports in the Gulf.
The Maryland Port Administration said the new business at Baltimore‘s Seagirt Container Terminal will be the first container service to make Baltimore its first port of call and is expected to add about 30,000 containers annually to the port.
With the new Hapag-Lloyd call, Baltimore will be getting calls by three of the world’s top five container carriers.
The Gulf of Mexico Express will have the following port rotation: Thamesport, Le Havre, Antwerp, Bremerhaven, Baltimore, Veracruz, Altamira, Houston, New Orleans, Charleston, Le Havre, Antwerp, Bremerhaven and back to Thamesport.
