CMA CGM CONSOLIDATES ON PORT OF TAURANGA

Posted on 8th February 2008

CMA CGM, the world’s third largest container shipping line, has today announced plans to relocate its NEMO service from Ports of Auckland and consolidate on the Port of Tauranga.

Port of Tauranga Chief Executive Mark Cairns said CMA CGM’s announcement was fantastic news. "CMA CGM has recognised the Port of Tauranga as a major North Island distribution hub, serving the Auckland market through a unique rail partnership with a rail linked inland terminal (MetroPort Auckland) in the centre of Auckland’s manufacturing and distribution centres.”

This new service will commence next month and add an additional 52 vessel calls per annum.
