Restructured Mediterranean routes
Arkas Line is expanding its global shipping network with the launch of its India Med service (IMS) on 10 February, linking the Mediterranean and Indian markets. Operated with four vessels with capacities of 2,500-2,800 teu (which will increase to five in June), the IMS will connect the key ports of Ambarli, Nhava Sheva and Mundra, with rail options to the Indian hinterlands.
Arkas Line is simultaneously restructuring its Mediterranean services by merging its GPS, EMS and SEM lines into its new Blue Med Service (BMS), enhancing its regional efficiency. The company now operates in 27 countries, serving 72 ports with 33 services. (pb)
