Hanjin Boosts Asia-Europe Rates

12/1/2011 9:48:14 AM

Hanjin Shipping joined other carriers trying to boost pricing on the deeply troubled Asia-Europe lanes, announcing it will raise rates at the end of this year.

The South Korean shipping line said the increases effective Dec. 23. The announcement follows moves by several other carriers — Maersk Line, Hapag-Lloyd and UASC — to raise prices on westbound Asia-Europe lanes that have seen rates in freefall in recent weeks. The latest SCFI Containerized Freight Index showed pricing on Asia-Europe shipments off 40 percent since the start of September.

The rate increases on containers shipped from Asia to North Europe and West Africa are $200 per 20-foot equivalent unit and $400 per 45-foot equivalent unit. The rate increases on containers shipped from Asia to the Mediterranean are $175 per TEU and $350 per FEU.
