Evergreen is the fourth largest shipping company of its type, ranked behind Maersk, MSC and CMA CGM.
Green Shipping, Evergreen's port agent in Israel, said in a press release that the Israeli shipping community strongly supported in the past Evergreen's direct Fareast services to Ashdod. Therefore the carrier feels obliged to continue serving Israeli market on a direct superior service.

The first vessel which will call Ashdod on a direct basis will be the Ever Uberty voy 0102-079 W loading in Shanghai on the 28th of April.
