French shipping group CMA CGM has announced the introduction of the New Victory Bridge service, linking north Europe with the US south Atlantic, Mexico and the US Gulf, effective 17 October.
Launched in partnership with CSAV, the service previously operated in conjunction with MSC will deploy five vessels of 3,000 TEU and is designed to strengthen the presence of CMA CGM on the north Europe/Mexico/US trade.
According to CMA CGM, the service offers attractive port coverage with new calls in Rotterdam and Miami, the shortest transit times on the market both eastbound and westbound between north Europe and Mexico and between north Europe and the south Atlantic, and an optimal coverage of the Mexican market.
'The New Victory Bridge service has been running according to market expectations for many years, providing CMA CGM’s customers with reliable and regular schedules,' said Jean-Philippe Thenoz, senior vice-president North America Lines at CMA CGM. 'With this optimisation, the group will provide the best transit times of the market from Mexico and US south Atlantic to north Europe, thus ensuring optimal service quality especially for the transport of refrigerated goods, particularly sensitive to travel times.'
The rotation of the New Victory Bridge service will be Le Havre, Antwerp, Rotterdam, Bremerhaven, Charleston, Miami, Vera Cruz, Altamira, Houston, Miami and Le Havre.
Meanwhile, the ports of Savannah and Felixstowe, included in the previous rotation, will now be served through CMA CGM’s Round The World and Liberty Bridge services.
