Maersk Line and Hutchison Ports sign agreement for priority terminal in Felixstowe

Maersk Line has announced the signing of a 10-year agreement for terminal usage for Maersk Line at Trinity Terminal, the Port of Felixstowe, UK. This agreement between Maersk Line and Hutchison Ports recognises the importance of joint co-operation in the shipping industry and reflects both companies’ commitment to long-term planning in the UK.

The new agreement with the Port of Felixstowe means Maersk Line has capacity guaranteed, giving it greater control over the operation of its vessels. In turn, greater operational control means greater reliability for customers.

The agreement, signed in May, will provide Maersk Line with reliable capacity to service its regular vessel calls into Felixstowe for the next 10 years, and will commence in August this year when the Port of Felixstowe take delivery of their latest cranes.
