Huizhou gets first international boxship call
A Hutchison Port Holdings-operated terminal in the Pearl River Delta received its first international containership call last week, HPH said Wednesday.
A SITC vessel called at Huizhou Port, near Guangzhou, as part of a new service linking Japan, Korea and Vietnam with the port. The CJVT service has a rotation of Shekou, Huizhou, Shanghai, Osaka, Kobe, Busan, Ho Chi Minh City and Shekou. It's operated with four 1,054-TEU vessels.
Huizhou is a multipurpose port, with container, liquid bulk and general cargo facilities. It has primarily served as a feeder port for larger gateways in the Pearl River Delta, like Hong Kong, Shenzhen and Nansha. HPH is also developing a dedicated container terminal adjacent to the multipurpose terminal in Huizhou, scheduled to open this year.
