Hanjin Shipping Launches Malta-Adriatic Feeder Service06 Jul
Hanjin Shipping has announced today the launch of the new MAF (Malta-Adriatic Feeder) service effective from June 19th, 2008. The new MAF is a dedicated feeder service in which one 1,000TEU class vessel is deployed connecting Malta, Koper and Venice on weekly basis.
Hanjin Shipping reveals that Malta will be added in the current MAP (Mediterranean-Asia-America Pendulum) and MEX (Mediterranean Express) services to connect with the new MAF. With these services, the company will continue to expand its service in the Adriatic Sea regions.
Especially, Hanjin Shipping expects that the launch of this new dedicated service will help secure the rising demand in the Mediterranean area as well as extend the scope of its service in the nearby regions including Hungary, Slovakia, southern Germany and Austria.
Meanwhile, Hanjin Shipping continues to advance into the Mediterranean area along with the development of its dedicated terminal in Algeciras, Spain and plans on developing more feeder network in Europe.
