Poised to be more relevant along the lucrative Far East and West Africa route, Maersk Line last week announced that it has adjusted the port rotation of its FEW1 service.
The weekly call to Apapa will be replaced with a direct call at the TICT terminal in Tin Can Island Port in Lagos.
This rotation change enables Maersk to offer direct weekly departures from the Far East to Tin Can Island whilst maintaining a weekly service to Apapa on its FEW2 service.
The new FEW1 service offers direct coverage from Shanghai, Ningbo, Hong Kong, Nansha and Tanjung Pelepas to Tincan Island, with transhipment from other Far East origins via Tanjung Pelepas.
The new rotation will include: Shanghai (China), Ningbo (China), Hong Kong (Hong Kong), Nansha (China), Tanjung Pelepas (Malaysia), Lome (Togo), Cotonou (Benin) and Tincan Island (Nigeria).
