DaChan Bay Terminals announced that it welcomed a new Transpacific service Puma of Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC).

In a statement, it said this new weekly Puma service connects South China with Long Beach, in response to the continued strong Transpacific market demand and to further support the challenging service schedules for North America West Coast.

“We are proud to work with MSC on this service which is a recognition of our quality services. Puma could offer customers quick transit time to and from the US West Coast. We will work together to provide quality services for customers as always,” said DaChan Bay Terminals managing director Brian Yeung.

Six container vessels each of a capacity of 4,100 TEUs are deployed in the Puma service.

The service calls DaChan Bay Terminals every Sunday with a port rotation of DaChan Bay – Shekou – Long Beach – DaChan Bay.

The first vessel departed DaChan Bay on October 17.
