Ocean carriers ZIM Line and Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) have begun weekly service calling at the Jacksonville Port Authority (JAXPORT), Florida, as part of their ZCP-Amberjack container service. The first vessel to call at JAXPORT as part of the new service, The Sapphire, arrived July 14.
The service calls at JAXPORT and major Asian container gateways, including Qingdao, Ningbo and Shanghai, China; Busan, South Korea; Manzanillo, Panama; Cartagena, Colombia; Kingston, Jamaica; and Charleston and Savannah in the United States. ZIM’s transshipment hubs in Kingston and Cartagena offer connections to additional international markets, including Latin America, the Caribbean, the Mediterranean and more points in Asia, JAXPORT officials said in a press release.
“We’re proud to continue building on our longstanding partnership with ZIM and MSC as they expand their service offerings at JAXPORT,” said JAXPORT Chief Commercial Officer Robert Peek. "The new service provides our customers with reliable connections with key Asian markets and expanded access to international destinations through an established global network. These enhanced capabilities help our customers move cargo more efficiently while strengthening Jacksonville’s role as a gateway for global trade.”
The port is served by CSX, Norfolk Southern Railway and Florida East Coast Railway.
