A new Far East to India Express (FIX) service has been introduced by SeaLead, a global container shipping line. The new service will connect ports in China to the east coast of India. Sinotrans, SITC, and TS Lines will be partnering to successfully operate this service.
“The first voyage will be on August 23, 2023. Rotation will be Qingdao/Shanghai/Ningbo/Shekou/Chennai/ Visakhapatnam/Port Kelang/Shekou/Qingdao. The FIX will offer one of the fastest transit times available from China to Chennai and Visakhapatnam.”
In addition to direct ports, the service will also allow for other SeaLead direct and feeder services to Australia, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, Thailand, and Indonesia, the release said. SeaLead has also opened a new office in Mumbai to serve as a hub for its South Asia operations.
