Multi-Link Terminals Helsinki (“MLT-Helsinki”, a Global Ports Group and CMA Terminals joint venture) has started working with CMA CGM. A new call at MLT-Helsinki on a regular service now provides weekly transportation of containers between Helsinki and Northern European ports using Unifeeder vessels.
The terminal handled the first two vessels of the new call, Unifeeder Dagmar and Unifeeder Elbsailor, on 6 and 13 October 2021. The service is designed for importing consumer goods and exporting forest industry products, paper, pulp, and sawn timber, among other products produced in Finland.
The CMA CGM service will run in addition to the regular line of Containerships already passing through MLT-Helsinki, connecting Finland with major ports in Northern Europe.
