Evergreen to reshuffle its East Med feeder network

In order to provide better service in the Eastern Mediterranean area, Evergreen Line will adjust its Greece – Turkey Service (GTS), by adding the Turkish port of Gebze, and launch a new service called GCY.

The existing Greece-Turkey-Malta (GTM) service will be adapted to become the Greece – Cyprus service  (GCY), with the following port rotation:  Piraeus – Thessaloniki – Limassol  –  Piraeus

The first GCY voyage of the 601teu M/V Kirsten is expected to depart Piraeus on April 08 2013.

A company spokesperson stated: ‘With this new feeder service from Piraeus to Thessaloniki and Cyprus and v.v., Evergreen Line will satisfy market demands for improved transit times from Limassol to North Europe especially for reefer cargo”.
