The decision by French ocean carrier CMA CGM to make the Port of Oakland its first port of call in a new service from Asia is a reflection of importers and exporters developing new markets closer to their customers: “First-call status demonstrates the market is viewing the Port of Oakland more strategically which will attract increased cargo volumes,” says GSC Logistics Harbor Trucking President Dave Arsenault.

The CMA CGM Africa Four called The Northwest Seaport Alliance's Seattle Harbor for the first time on Saturday, February 20th as part of a new service.

The Taiwan-based international shipping company Wan Hai Lines has announced The Northwest Seaport Alliance's Seattle Harbor as first port of call for its new, independent service. Wan Hai recently revamped its services to provide comprehensive coverage that meets its growing customer demand in the Pacific Northwest.
