Mediterranean/Canadian conference raises surcharge
Ocean carriers in the Mediterranean-Canadian Freight Conference have advised shippers and consignees they will increase their currency surcharge to 15 percent from 10 percent, effective Jan. 1.
“The monitoring of currencies has produced a change in the 10 percent surcharge that is being applied on all charges published in the Joint Canadian Inland Tariff,” the conference said in a statement.
Conference's member lines are Canada Maritime, a division of CP Ships (UK) Ltd.; CAST, another CP Ships (UK) division; Senator Lines, and Zim Integrated Shipping Services.
