JSW Jaigarh Port handles first container vessel

Exim 
JSW Jaigarh Port achieved another landmark when it handled its maiden container vessel, MV SSL Chennai, which called at the port on November 7, 2015. It was the result of five years of hardship, opening the gateway for container movement in Kolhapur and the peripheral sector, stressed a release. The neighbouring regions like Ratnagiri, Chiplun-Mahad, Kolhapur, Satara, Sangli, Solapur and Belgaum are a major industrial base for foundry, textiles, seafood, agro commodities, etc. The entire trade is presently operating from JNPT. With the facility available next door at Jaigarh Port (near Ratnagiri), the distance has drastically reduced by 200 km, making it easier for all exporters and for the promotion of the trade. With this move, it is expected that container traffic of at least 2,000 TEUs per month could be diverted to Jaigarh Port immediately, the release pointed out.

Port of Rotterdam increase discounts for transhipment of containers to other ports in Europe and containers carried on feeder services. The measure aimed to increase transhipment through the container terminal and to improve market share in Europe on the background of competition with main rival Port of Antwerp. Port of Rotterdam announced that in 2016 the discount for transhipment of containers will be increased to 3.75 EUR/TEU from the current 2.50 EUR EUR/TEU. In addition, Port Authority of Rotterdam will set discount of 2.50 EUR/TEU for the feeder container for the next two years. Also the port agreed additional discounts for ships engaged in the repeated calling at the port.
