Maersk Line moves first end-to-end shipments from Haldia
Maersk Line, the global containerised division of the Maersk Group, announced the successful execution of its first reefer as well as dry Store Door shipments from customer's doorstep via Haldia Dock Complex to destinations in Los Angeles, Alexandria, Newark and Savannah. The consignments were traditionally shipped from Kolkata Port; however, with the opportunity of increased draught and its fixed weekly sailings, Haldia offered a better prospect for the customer.
Maersk Line has been committed to the East Indian market, and its efforts were also recognised by industry peers at the beginning of this year when it was adjudged as the Container Shipping Line of the Year in Kolkata.
Mr Steve Felder, Managing Director, Maersk Line (India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan and Maldives): "We are committed to delivering the best integrated logistical solutions tailor-made to suit our customers in every geography. Our first Store Door (SD) reefer project from Haldia is a significant landmark and the first of many such initiatives to follow. We will continue to work on our E2E service offerings and further simplify trade in this region."

The Haldia Dock Complex, with its fixed weekly connections, has reduced cargo dwell time from 7 days to 3 days thus saving significantly on transportation and warehousing costs.Posted On:3-Jul-2018
