International Container Terminal Services Inc., said its Mexico operation in the Second Specialized Container Terminal at the Port of Manzanillo has received the first call of BAL Container Line’s China — Mexico (CMX) service last December, adding another shipping line to its diverse list of partner clients.
The CMX service made its first call at the Port of Manzanillo with the arrival of the 5,060-TEU capacity S SANTIAGO — one of the eight boxships operating the service.
“All eight ships have a combined capacity of 31,360 TEUs,” ICTSI said.
BAL Container Line is a subsidiary of Shandong Lcang International Logistics and that will make a port call at the Port of Manzanillo biweekly and links the port with the Ports of Ningbo, Qingdao, Yantian and Lazaro Lázaro Cárdenas.
“The addition of BAL Container Line to the Contecon Family contributes to the sustained growth that the company has maintained in 2021, consolidating our position as the specialized container terminal with the highest growth rate in the port,” said José Antonio Contreras, Contecon Manzanillo SA de CV (CMSA) chief executive officer.
