Maersk Starts New Transatlantic Service

Danish giant Maersk Line is addressing the growing demand for a route between the Mediterranean and Canada by introducing a weekly service.

The five-vessel rotation will make stops in Salerno and La Spezia (Italy), Fos-sur-Mer (France), Algeciras (Spain), Montreal and Halifax (Canada), and Valencia (Spain).

The Mediterranean-Montreal Express will be connected to other markets via Maersk's integrated transshipment services in Algeciras and Valencia.

“With one agreement in effect to fuel Canadian imports and exports in the Atlantic and another one in the works for the Pacific, this represents only favourable wind behind the expansion of our services in Canada,” Jack Mahoney, President of Maersk Line Canada, stated.
