MSC partners with the New York Shipping Exchange

Mediterranean Shipping Co (MSC), the world’s largest containerline, is partnering with the New York Shipping Exchange (NYSHEX) to enhance the digitalisation of ocean freight contract performance.

Through this strategic collaboration, MSC will integrate NYSHEX’s technology to gain real-time insights into their contract performance. The secure, cloud-based platform from NYSHEX digitalises key contract terms, allocations, and service levels, and overlays this information with live data on bookings, container milestones, and vessel schedules through automated workflows.

“The NYSHEX solution will give us greater visibility of our ocean contracts, with real-time monitoring and automated alerts on booking patterns. It will enable us to streamline the way we fulfil contracts and resolve exceptions, keeping our customers at the heart of every discussion and decision,” noted André Simha, MSC’s chief digital officer.

Other carriers such as Maersk, CMA CGM and Hapag-Lloyd have been using NYSHEX services for a number of years.
