Alliances of THE, OCEAN & 2M+HMM chose TCIT for deploying their new services in 2017

From April 2017, the former shipping alliances including G6, OCEAN 3 and CKYHE have officially reconstructed into 3 new alliances: THE, OCEAN and 2M + HMM. This launch has been recognized as one of the biggest changes in maritime industry in the past 05 years. Due to the reconstruction, port operators all over the world have to face big challenges in both maintaining their existing customers and attracting new ones.

Facing upcoming challenges, Tan Cang – Cai Mep International Terminal (TCIT for short) has always proven its leading position by being one of the top terminals – also the biggest transshipment hub Vietnam with new services of new alliances deployed in the beginning of April 2017.
