New CMA CGM service from Livorno and Genoa to the US Gulf
CMA CGM is launching Medgulf Service, a new loop connecting the Mediterranean to the US Gulf and the Caribbean islands
The CMA CGM Group announced the launch of the Medgulf Service linking the Mediterranean to the US Gulf and Caribbean (Dominican Republic, Jamaica). The first voyage will start from Livorno, on April 24th 2015.
This new service will offer:
– Weekly sailings from the Mediterranean to US Gulf and Caribbean
– A unique and direct rotation from Houston to Tangiers
– The best transit time on the market between Mexico and Houston, to Spain and Italy, that represents a strong advantage on the reefer market
Medgulf completes the Amerigo service that has already been operating between the Mediterranean and US East Coast. It will deploy a fleet of six 1,700 TEU vessels on the following direct weekly rotation: Tangiers, Livorno, Genoa, Barcelona, Valencia, Caucedo, Kingston, Veracruz, Altamira, Houston and Tangiers.
CMA CGM, founded and led by Jacques R. Saadé is the world’s third largest and France’s top container shipping company. Its 445 vessels call more than 400 ports in the world, on all 5 continents. In 2014, they carried 12.2 million TEUs. With a presence in 150 countries, through its 655 agencies network, the Group employs 20,000 people worldwide, including 2,400 in its headquarter in Marseilles.
