Evergreen Line Expands Adriatic-Israel Service

October 5 2016 - Evergreen Line is to partner with COSCO in operating a joint Adriatic – Israel (AIS) Service. The new initiative opens up the corridor between North Adriatic ports, Piraeus and Israel, and provide direct and speedy service to customers. Two ships of around 1,000 TEU will be deployed on the new weekly service, one each operated by the joint service partners.
The first sailing on the AIS Service will be from Koper on the 4th of October and port rotation is as follows:
 Koper (Slovenia) – Ravenna (Italy) – Venice (Italy) – Piraeus (Greece) – Haifa (Israel) – Ashdod (Israel) – Koper (Slovenia) With a 14-day rotation, this weekly service provides an efficient link for regional trade and offers more opportunities for customers in the growing area, focusing especially on the time sensitive reefer cargo.
 In addition to strengthen Evergreen Line’s current Adriatic-Piraeus feeder coverage, the pair of regional services will also further expand Evergreen Line’s global service network by improving connectivity via its transhipment hub in Piraeus.
