Evergreen provides German link to Far East

Combining its ADR Far East–Adriatic service with a dedicated block train connection from Trieste to Munich, Evergreen will offer shippers a direct-to-door service across southern Germany. Outbound from Germany, the connection with Trieste will allow shippers to reach key markets in the East Mediterranean and Far East.

The ADR service deploys seven 3,150 teu vessels on a 49-day rotation. It provides a fast and regular connection between China and the Adriatic, calling at Shanghai – Ningbo – Hong Kong – Yantian – Tanjung Pelepas – Alexandria Dekheila – Taranto – Rijeka – Trieste – Koper – Taranto – Tanjung Pelepas – Shanghai.

The Trieste-Munich block train service will initially run twice a week in both directions, gradually increasing to five times a week by the end of the year. Northbound trains will depart Trieste every Tuesday and Friday, while southbound connections will depart Munich-Riem every Thursday and Saturday. Transit time is approximately 11 hours.
