Jan, 20, 2021 Posted by Ruth HollardWeek 202103
The shipping company CMA CGM has announced that “beginning in late January 2021, we will service Tema, Ghana, instead of Pointe Noire, offering a direct stopover to one of West Africa’s main commercial markets”.
Starting with m/v GH LESTE with ETA Paranaguá, Brazil, on January 25, 2021, the new 49-day rotation will be: Paranaguá – Itajaí – Santos Brasil – Santos DPW – Durban – Cape Town – Luanda – Tema MPS – Paranaguá. The other rotation terminals will remain unchanged.
CMA CGM also noted that “the service will improve the transit time to Ghana by 10 days (33 days from Santos)”.
Due to the withdrawal of Pointe Noire from the SAMWAF service, the company announced new options for internal transshipment. Pointe Noire will be offered in transshipment via Cape Town; Benin and Nigeria will be offered via Tema; and Douala, Matadi, Libreville, and Cabinda will be offered via Luanda.
