MSC posts record performance in Liverpool
The Port of Liverpool’s deep-water container terminal has broken a record. The MSC Federica, which recently docked, exchanged more than 5,400 teu, the highest number seen from a single vessel in Liverpool since the terminal opened in 2016.
The vessel is part of MSC’s Turkey Canada service which calls at Montreal, Liverpool, Sines, Valencia, Barcelona and Tekirdağ amongst other terminals. This service directly links Liverpool to the Far East. In 2016, owner Peel Ports invested GBP 400 million in the container terminal.
The next phase of growth, Peel Ports, executed in conjunction with global terminal business Terminal Investment Limited (TiL) till the year 2021, comprises the arrival of a further 13 cranes which will allow the terminal to manage the unloading of two 380 m vessels simultaneously.
