PRESS ROOM

With our comprehensive portfolio of international container shipping services, the U-Freight Group was interested in this week's news that Hapag-Lloyd and Maersk have shaken up the global liner alliance structures on the main east-west trades, announcing the creation of the Gemini Cooperation from February next year.

The creation of the Gemini Cooperation leaves the remaining members of THE Alliance scrabbling to fill the gap left by the German carrier’s impending exit.
