Hanjin Shipping to launch new South and North America service

Hanjin Shipping has launched a new South and North America service with K-Line, Yang Ming and CSAV, effective from end of April 2008.   

Replacing the current New South America (NSA) service, which is operated by Hanjin Shipping, K-Line, Yang Ming and Hyundai Merchant Marine with four of 1,800TEU class ships, the new South and North America (SNA) service will be jointly operated by a new line of partners including Hanjin Shipping, K-Line, Yang Ming and CSAV with five of 2,500TEU class vessels covering even wider range of ports in South America east coast and the US east coast.

Hanjin Shipping said that the launch of this new SNA service with the partner carriers will enable the company to enhance its presence in the South American market and also upgrade its customer service by supplying stable vessel space and schedule to customers using the North and South America trade.
