Manila International Container Terminal (MICT) welcomed the first call of Hapag-Lloyd’s newly-launched China-Philippines Feeder (CPF) service.
Tokyo Express sailed into the Port of Manila on March 17, MICT operator International Container Terminal Services, Inc. (ICTSI) said in a statement.
The CPF service directly links Nansha in China, Tanjung Pelapas in Malaysia, Singapore and key Philippine ports, including Manila, Batangas and Subic.
Port rotation is Nansha, Tanjung Pelepas, Singapore, Batangas, Manila, and Subic Bay before sailing back to Nansha.
The service enhances trade connectivity for Philippine importers and exporters by providing a reliable link to major transshipment hubs, allowing for improved access to markets in the region, ICTSI said.
Aside from the Tokyo Express, Hapag-Lloyd also deployed the vessel Seoul Express to the CPF service, ICTSI said.
CPF is part of the German shipping line’s expansion of its network coverage in Asia this year following the start in February of the Gemini Cooperation—a long-term collaboration with Maersk that allows the two shipping companies to share vessels on routes between the United States, Asia, the Middle East, and Europe.
