COVID-19: MSC offers container storage at transhipment hubs

MSC has unveiled a flexible cargo service to help customers prepare for the resumption of demand of a variety of goods from Asia once the COVID-19 pandemic eases.

The Suspension of Transit (SOT) programme provides customers with container yard storage at six global transhipment hubs to ensure that goods can be shipped close to their destinations as soon as possible.

While positive signs of recovery have begun to emerge in Asia and factories have restarted production, major ports of destination may still not be ready to discharge containers.
