MSC strengthens Canada-Mediterranean connections

The Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) has announced the enhancement of its West Mediterranean-Canada services with immediate effect.

[s2If is_user_logged_in()]The Swiss-based line will add a double port call at Halifax in Canada and a call at the port of Valencia in Spain on the Canada Express 2 service.

“The new rotation will reinforce our offering for cargo shippers in Canada and the West Mediterranean and provide seamless connections to our global network,” said the company in its announcement and went on to add, “The addition of Halifax will offer Canadian exporters the possibility to export cargo to anywhere in the Mediterranean, as well as to the Middle East, Indian subcontinent, Asia and Oceania via Barcelona and Valencia, two key Mediterranean transshipment hubs.”

Meanwhile, MSC will also revise the Canada Express 1 service rotation by adding calls to Naples, Italy and Marsaxlokk, Malta. This service will no longer call at Valencia, as this is now covered by Canada Express 2.
