ROTTERDAM's NileDutch is to enhance its coverage to the Ivory Coast's main city of Abidjan in a direct call to the port on its jointly operated Europe/West Africa service (WEWA) with CMA CGM-Delmas.
It will be the first West African port on this service with the first southbound sailing offered from April 1. It will make a northbound Abidjan call twice a month, which will allow for a direct link to Europe.
This will allow for connection between East Asia and Brazil to Abidjan through transhipment at Pointe Noire to and from WEWA and its Far East-Africa service.
It will offer very competitive transit times to Europe increasing capacity in a seventh vessel at average capacity of 2,500-3,000 TEU. Rotation will be slightly increased from 60 to 62 days from a sailing every nine days to an average of 10 days instead.
The new port rotation will be as follows: Antwerp, Le Havre, Leixoes, Lisbon, Abidjan, Pointe Noire, Luanda and Lobito.
