Maersk Line today announced it will increase rates as of Oct. 1 on its services between the Eastern Mediterranean/Black Sea and West Africa.
It said it will seek increases of:
$200 per 20-foot dry container
$360 per 40-foot dry container;
$200 per reefer TEU; and
$360 per reefer FEU.
“The trading conditions for the carriers operating in these markets are still subject to unacceptable rate levels and the situation is unsustainable in the longer term,” the Danish line said.
