Following the extension of its westbound capacity with BBC’s Med-America Service, BBC Chartering adds a regular »apac service« departing every fortnight from the Continent to the US-Gulf starting mid-June.

The capacity is marketed as »BBC Euro-Gulf Express Line« and offers projec[ds_preview]t cargo customers flexible transport solutions and short transit times. The capacity operates
under BBC Chartering’s liner and semi-liner network for any port, any cargo (apac service) and utilizes the carrier’s fleet of 180 MPP and HL vessels, including Ro/Ro tonnage.

»We are pleased to launch this new ›express line‹ which connects Hamburg with the first US Gulf port in about 19 days. This brings customers a new level of service and significant time savings compared to existing services in the market,« said Svend Andersen, CEO of BBC Chartering.

Consolidate cargo at popular hubs

»It is against the background of existing volume contracts which offer shippers reliable and steady westbound capacity and with that excellent opportunity to consolidate cargo at the continents’ most popular project cargo hubs,« he said.

Loading ports for the new »BBC Euro-Gulf Express Line« are Antwerp, Bremen, and Hamburg. Discharge ports are Mobile and Houston. Additional ports can be added following BBC’s high performance inducement approach.
