CMA CGM has launched a new service - the Shaka Express - linking Asia, Indian Ocean Islands and South Africa.
This new weekly service will deploy six 4,500 - 6,500 TEU vessels, and will enable CMA CGM to meet the growing market demand of South Africa, as more than 30% of the country's trade is with Asia.
The service provides:
- New reefer capacity for exports from Durban and Port Elizabeth (Nqura) to Singapore and Hong Kong, a trade on which refrigerated goods represent about 20% of the containerised volumes.
- Connections with CMA CGM's global network of lines via Hong Kong for cargo to and from North China.
- Northbound and Southbound calls in Port Louis, allowing relay of cargo to and from all Indian Ocean Islands via the connection with the CMA CGM Mascareignes service (linking Gulf, Pakistan and Indian Ocean).
- Port rotation: Fuzhou > Xiamen > Kaohsiung > Hong Kong > Chiwan > Singapore > Port Louis > Durban > Port Elizabeth (Ngqura) > Port Louis > Singapore > Fuzhou.
CMA CGM now has four services a week calling in South Africa.
