CMA CGM and YKIP sign reservation agreement for Honmokufuto D5 Terminal

The CMA CGM Group and the Yokohama Kawasaki International Port Corporation (YKIP) have signed a reservation agreement for the Honmokufuto D5 container terminal in the Port of Yokohama.

The D5 terminal will have a cargo berth with a linear quay length of 400 m and a draught of 16 m, providing CMA CGM the flexibility to accommodate larger vessels of up to 15,000 teu.

Hideki Uchida, president of CMA CGM Japan, said: “As we prime for our larger vessels to ship more inbound cargoes from Yokohama, particularly fresh fruits from Central and Southern America, the enhanced operational capabilities, container yard capacity and reefer plugs at the D5 terminal is set to take our service delivery a notch up.
