Hamburg Süd has announced that it will offer a new service from South Africa to Argentina and Brazil (SABR Service) in cooperation with Nile Dutch, a move that comes into effect on 13 July this year.
The new fixed-day fortnightly service will provide shippers with a regular westbound link from South Africa to South America, with connections to Europe and North America.
The new service rotation will call at Durban, Port Elizabeth, Buenos Aires, Rio Grande, Itajai, Santos and Rio de Janeiro, with further destinations in South America, North America and Europe offered in transhipment.
In the opposite direction to the SABR service, Hamburg Süd serves the trade from South America to South Africa with its New Good Hope Express Service, offering twice-weekly direct links from Brazil and the River Plate to South Africa.
