en.Wedoany.com Reported - Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC)'s premium Asia-Europe mainline service, JADE, officially made its maiden call at Guangzhou Port's Nansha Port Area on June 4. This service fully replaces the original DRAGON service's Mediterranean route operations at Nansha Port Area. The JADE service deploys vessels with larger container capacity to ensure the shipping needs of hinterland enterprises during the peak season on European routes, adding new capacity for foreign trade exports from the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

The JADE service, strategically developed by MSC, operates with 16 ultra-large container ships of the 24,000 TEU class. This year, the service has achieved dual improvements in capacity deployment and transit time. The latest port rotation is: Qingdao – Busan – Ningbo – Shanghai – Xiamen – Nansha – Yantian – Singapore – Valencia – Barcelona – Fos – Gioia Tauro – Singapore – Shanghai – Qingdao. The service stably covers core Southern European markets including Spain, France, and Italy, and efficiently connects with logistics networks in North Africa and the Eastern Mediterranean. With the JADE service calling at Nansha Port Area, it will effectively alleviate the tight space situation for hinterland enterprises during the European route peak season, enhancing the overall operational efficiency of the supply chain.

Nansha Port Area has always been a core strategic hub for MSC to deepen its presence in the South China market. In recent years, cooperation between the two sides has continued to deepen, with MSC launching several new Southeast Asian routes at Nansha, steadily enhancing regional connectivity in Asia. Meanwhile, MSC's container throughput at Nansha Port Area has achieved double-digit year-on-year growth, demonstrating the resilience of regional foreign trade and the high recognition of Nansha Port Area's hub capabilities and business environment by leading international liner companies.
