Adriatic Gate Container Terminal (AGCT), International Container Terminal Services Inc.’s (ICTSI) operation at the Port of Rijeka in Croatia, welcomed the commencement of the new HADRIA service by Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) with the maiden call of the MSC Annick on 9 April.
MSC’s standalone service marks a significant development for North Adriatic trade connectivity, offering direct weekly connections to the Far East via Malta.
“With the breakup of the 2M Alliance, we are excited to welcome the new standalone MSC HADRIA service to AGCT,” said Emannuel Papagiannakis, AGCT chief executive officer.
“We expect shippers to embrace the new service, as well as MSC’s global connectivity and continued commitment to Rijeka as a major gateway for the Balkans and Central Europe,” he added.
The HADRIA service makes regular weekly calls, strengthening AGCT’s network and enhancing options for regional shippers looking for reliable, efficient access to global markets.
With this new addition, AGCT continues to expand its portfolio of direct services, supporting the increasing demand for sustainable and cost-effective logistics solutions in the Adriatic region.
