Adriatic Gate Container Terminal, International Container Terminal Services’ container handling facility in the Port of Rijeka, Croatia, recently launched China Ocean Shipping Co’s Adriatic–Greece–Turkey service when COSCO selected AGCT as the first port of call of the service.
The AGCT launch was marked by the maiden call of Contship Eco on 24th February. The service, which directly connects Rijeka with Greek and Turkish ports, also links the Northern Adriatic ports with Piraeus, Greece. For Rijeka, the AGT service presents huge trade opportunities, especially for imports.
Contship Eco, together with two other vessels deployed to the service, Orkun Kalvan and Reecon Emir, calls at Rijeka once a week, and plies the ports of Piraeus, Koper, Venecija, Ancona, Thessaloniki, Istanbul Ambarli, Istanbul Haydarpasa, Yilport Gebze and Izmir.
