CMA CGM launches service between the west coast ports of North, Central and South America
CMA CGM, a leading worldwide shipping group, has announced the launch, starting May 24, of its new service between the west coast of the United States, Central America and South America. The service is one of the most complete on the market between these three strategic zones.
CMA CGM will now offer its customers:
Weekly service offering optimal coverage to/from the west coast of the United States, Central America and South America
The possibility of fast connections with the United States, Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Colombia through the hubs of Lazaro Cardenas (Mexico) and Buenaventura (Colombia).
CMA CGM will operate this service in collaboration with the German shipping company Hamburg Sud.
With this new AZTECA service, CMA CGM will enable the agri-food industry in Central and South America to export to North American markets.
Thanks to the existing connections from the hubs of the region, producers in Central America will benefit from competitive transit times with Asia: from Lazaro Cardenas, for example, Pusan (South Korea), Shanghai (China), Xiamen (China) and Hong Kong (China) will be serviced in 19, 21, 25 and 27 days, respectively.
CMA CGM is deploying a service adapted to the demand of its local customers and strengthens its network on the Pacific coast of the Americas.
