German international shipping company Hapag-Lloyd has signed a space charter agreement with Maersk and MSC on the Aisa-North Europe trade, according to a 17 January announcement made by the company.

Hapag-Lloyd will expand its product offering on the Asia-North Europe trade beginning in March 2020.

As a member of THE Alliance, Hapag-Lloyd already offers a comprehensive service portfolio. However, to strengthen it even further, Hapag-Lloyd has signed a space charter agreement with Maersk and MSC that will give us access to selected services of 2M.

The addition of these services will enable Hapag-Lloyd to offer an even higher frequency of weekly departures and more routing options as well as to directly serve additional ports with high schedule reliability.

In the upcoming weeks, Hapag-Lloyd will announce additional details about the services.
