Aug. 11, 2009
Famous Pacific Shipping (FPS) Rotterdam has beefed up its South American ocean freight connections

A new fortnightly consolidation service from Rotterdam to Cartagena, Colombia adds to FPS Rotterdam’s existing services to Santos, Buenos Aires, Callao, Valparaiso and Colon.

This new direct fortnightly ocean freight forwarding service between Rotterdam and Cartagena can handle full container (FCL) and less-than-containerload (LCL) shipments and has been developed in connection with FPS Rotterdam’s new partner, MSL Colombia, the company said.

“We are building on our strong and successful network from Rotterdam to South America serving five ports by adding a sixth destination,” says Jean Paul van Munster, managing director of FPS Rotterdam. “Exporters from Colombia will be able to take advantage of FPS Rotterdam’s links through The Netherlands to easily connect with customers worldwide.”

Van Munster adds, “Cartagena is being developed as a major hub for South American import and export traffic. ”
