Yang Ming has set up a joint venture in Turkey that opens for business on Thursday.
The Taiwanese ocean carrier has set up the business with its existing agent in Turkey, Egekont Container Transport S.A. The new company will be called Yang Ming Anatolia Shipping Agency S.A.
“Yang Ming aims to integrate neighboring markets to fully reach the potential and development of the East Mediterranean and Black Sea service network,” the carrier said in a statement.
Yang Ming calls at four ports in Turkey: Haydarpasa, Istanbul, Izmir and Mersin.
