CMA CGM expands UK feeder service

The company’s expansion into Liverpool will take advantage of Peel Ports’ Green Highway Network, a shuttle service that carries freight 44 miles inland via the Manchester Ship Canal.

The new route will see deep sea containers – which have been transported to Europe from the Far East – coming into the Port of Liverpool on a feeder service from Le Havre, France.

The service will also allow empty containers that would otherwise be moved to Greenock via road or rail to be transported by sea. These containers will serve the Scottish drinks export market, and be shipped back to the Far East.
