Hapag-Lloyd announces Mediterranean-South America West Coast service updates

German ocean carrier Hapag-Lloyd has announced changes in its Mediterranean-South America West Coast (MSW) service, which will be effective from 20 March.

Hapag-Lloyd will introduce the port of Vigo in Spain to the MSW rotation as the initial port of call in the Mediterranean. Through this addition, the Hamburg-based line aims to offer expedited transit times to northern Spain and Portugal markets.

Moreover, the port of Tangier in Morocco will now exclusively function as a transshipment hub and will no longer be included in the new rotation, according to the company. Additionally, Hapag Lloyd will include a stop at the Italian port of Salerno in the service rotation, extending cargo coverage from the northern to the southern regions of Italy.

The updated port rotation of the MSW service will be as follows:

Malaga (Spain) -> Valencia (Spain) -> Civitavecchia (Italy) -> Salerno (Italy) -> Genoa (Italy) -> Livorno (Italy) -> Barcelona (Spain) -> Caucedo (Dominican Republic) -> Cartagena (Colombia) -> Buenaventura (Colombia) -> Paita (Peru) -> Posorja (Ecuador) -> Guayaquil (Ecuador) -> Manzanillo (Panama) -> Puerto Limon (Costa Rica) -> Cartagena (Colombia) -> Vigo (Spain) -> Malaga (Spain)
