Finally, the ‘MSC Aries’ will operate Biscay Express service, calling at the Atlantic coast ports of Brest, Montoir and Le Verdon.
“As a result of some 350,000 additional teu on our TNMSC terminal at Port 2000, the new services are the first stage of our business growth plan in Le Havre. In the near future, MSC plans further development in shipping services thus strengthening the part played by the Port of Le Havre as a hub,” said Stephan Snijders, executive director of MSC France.
MSC provides from its Port 2000 facilities four river services along the Seine for containers, offering seven return voyages per week linking Le Havre with the HAROPA terminals of Rouen, Gennevilliers, Limay and Evry.
