Leading regional ports management and logistics firm, Gulftainer, has announced an additional connection for Khorfakkan Container Terminal (KCT), which it operates on behalf of Sharjah Port Authority, following the start of China Shipping's Service operating in conjunction with CMA-CGM which calls weekly at KCT. CSCL vessels of 8,500 teu size (334 meters in length and 100,000 DWT), such as last week's ‘CSCL Europe', are now regular callers and are of course receiving the first class productivity and efficiency for which KCT is justly renowned. Speaking of this development, Gulftainer Group Director and General Manager Peter Richards, said “KCT is ideally situated to act as a relay point for containers throughout the region, and the addition of the China Shipping Service serves to cement its position as the true transhipment hub for the region - illustrating that in these difficult times KCT's productivity and efficiency saves time and money.” KCT continues to reinforce its reputation as a regional hub through the addition of new and expanded services.
