CMA CGM buys into HMM’s Algeciras terminal
HMM has sold CMA CGM a 50% stake minus one share in Total Terminal International Algeciras (TTI Algeciras), a container terminal with a 1.6m teu annual capacity in the south of Spain.
The financial details have not been disclosed between the two liners.
An HMM official commented, “TTI Algeciras has a great geographical advantage to play an integral role as a transhipment hub located at the centre of containerised cargo flow on the main tradelanes.”
TTI Algeciras was formerly operated by Hanjin Shipping but HMM acquired a 100% stake in the terminal in 2017 as compatriot Hanjin went bust.
This has been made out of the profit gained against container detention charges at the current pandemic situation.
CONGRATULATIONS TO CMA CGM FOR MAKING PROFIT FROM POOR CUSTOMERS.
