Container Services Resume at Port of Sendai

6/11/2011 10:16:57 AM

Container services resumed this week at the Port of Sendai-Shiogoma, the most important port in Japan’s northeastern region of Tohoku, nearly three months after the devastating March 11 earthquake and tsunami.

 

A container ship operated by Kinkai Yusen Logistics, a subsidiary of NYK Line, on Wednesday became the first such vessel to depart from the Port of Sendai-Shiogama since the twin natural disasters.

 

The 749-ton domestic feeder vessel Harukaze left for the Port of Tokyo, carrying 140 TEUs of automobile tires produced by Toyo Tire & Rubber. The tires will be reloaded onto a larger container ship at the Port of Tokyo and shipped to North America. Container services remain limited to domestic feeder ships at the port, which took a direct hit from the tsunami.
