ECU-LINE Antwerp has announced that by using the Angola Shuttle Service provided by OT Africa Line, the European shipping line has cut the transit time of its groupage service to Luanda to 15 days.
The company has been making full use of this arrangement since the end of January as it replaces the weekly transshipment service via Abidjan, which used to offer a transit time of 35 days.
Ecu-Line Antwerp added in a statement that all B/L instructions have to be in the possession of OT Africa Line prior to the departure date to avoid high fines for manifest corrections at the port of destination.
Ecu-Line is represented in Angola by SDV-AMI Luanda.
