Headquartered in Salerno, the Hamburg Süd Agency South Italy (HSASI) is a joint venture between Hamburg Süd and the Gallozzi Group.
When HSASI begins operations on January 1st, the former Costa Container Lines agents, Costamar, and the former Hamburg Süd agents, Joint Maritime Agencies, will cease to act for the shipping group in Southern Italy at the end of the year.
Headquartered in Alexandria, the Hamburg Süd Maritime Agencies Egypt is a joint venture between Hamburg Süd, Tabadol and Mesco. The JV partners have already collaborated for many years, as Tabadol and Mesco act as agents for Hamburg Süd and Costa Container Lines respectively.
Hamburg Süd took over Costa Container Lines' operations a year ago, and recently rebranded its liner operations.
With the establishment of its own agencies, all Hamburg Süd services in Southern Italy and Egypt will be handled via one contact instead of through two agencies.
