Today, June 10, CMA CGM was forced to announce it would no longer accept shipments between East Coast South America and Cagliari (Italy), after the Cagliari Terminal Operator (CICT) announced it has stopped serving container vessels.

Hapag Lloyd decided to stop calling at the Sardinian port in April, due to its lack of investment over the years and hence inadequate infrastructure, which left the terminal in a critical state. Dataliner data shows that all cargoes going from ECSA to Cagliari are transshipments, with Hapag Lloyd accounting for the largest volume handled.

A meeting is to be held at the Transport Ministry in Rome on Wednesday in Sarroch regarding the fate of CICT. In addition to the fate of hundreds of workers at the terminal, discussions will be held on how to re-launch the container terminal.
