MOL and Daimler to ship cars to Asia via Slovenia

Japan’s Mitsui OSK Lines (MOL) is teaming up with German car manufacturer Daimler to ship vehicles to Asia.

The new route – set for four times a month – will go via Slovenia’s Koper, rather than Daimler’s previous export hub of Bremerhaven, en route to final destinations in China and Southeast Asia.
