SHENZHEN's Da Chan Bay Terminals (DCB) recently welcomed the arrival last week of Zim Integrated Shipping (ZIM)'s vessel Milano on her maiden West bound voyage of the new Mediterranean Pacific service (ZMP), which covers Asia, East Mediterranean, Black Sea and Pacific North West (PNW).

Zim's other vessel, the Ukrayina called at the same facility a day later on her maiden voyage of ZMP's east bound service, which is part of the liner's new deployment this month.



In addition to the new ZMP service, the liner's new deployment on the Pacific Trade offers two all water services ZCP - Zim Container Pacific and Z7S - Zim Seven Stars which also call at Da Chan Bay.



All of these services are independently operated by Zim and it allows high level of flexibility to the liner serving its customers.

The port rotation of the service is as below: Shenzhen-Da Chan Bay, Port Klang, Ashdod, Haifa, Istanbul, Novorossiysk, Odessa, Istanbul, Haifa, Port Klang, CaiMep, Shenzhen-Da Chan Bay, Shenzhen-Yantian, Xiamen, Ningbo, Shanghai, Busan, Vancouver, Busan, Qingdao, Shanghai, Ningbo and back to Shenzhen-Da Chan Bay.



Offering connections between Asia and the East Mediterranean/Black Sea, as well as Asia and Pacific North West, this new service at DCB will provide direct calls to all major ports for both importers and exporters in China.
