London Gateway wins new services
DP World’s London Gateway celebrated its first anniversary last week with the news that it has expanded its network of shipping links and destinations, winning a series of new deep-sea container shipping services.
Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) has confirmed that from December, its service from South Africa to UK/Northwest Europe will make a direct call at the Thames terminal, marking a switch from the Port of Felixstowe in Kent. MSC has told shippers that the new rotation will offer “the best possible UK port coverage”. The MSC Rita will be the first vessel to call as part of the new rotation, due to arrive on 7 December.
