In view of the growth potential in Latin American trade, Evergreen Marine Corp. (Evergreen Line) is continuing to establish its own offices at main service locations in the region. The move will strengthen the effectiveness of the line’s operations, improve its capability to react to market opportunities, optimise the efficiency of its network routing and enhance its competitiveness in the area.
Trade expansion in Latin America
Evergreen confirms its continued commitment to serving the trade and economy of Latin American west coast region
Evergreen Line has just opened its own agency in Colombia, following the establishments of other offices in Peru, Chile and Mexico, over the past few months. In setting up these offices, Evergreen confirms its continued commitment to serving the trade and economy of Latin American west coast region.
The dedicated personnel at these locations will have responsibility for local marketing and sales, customer service, shipping documentation, ground transport and port operations.
New container transport services
In order to expand the container transport options for its customers in Far East – Latin American west coast trade, Evergreen has teamed up with partners to add two more trans-pacific services, which are in addition to the two currently operated services by Evergreen.
As a result the range of direct ports of call on offer via, the now four weekly services, has been expanded to Pusan (South Korea), Qingdao and Xiamen (China) and, in Latin America, Ensenada (Mexico) and Lirquen (Chile).
Complementary East Asia economic trade pattern
Although Latin America has an abundance of natural resources, a variety of common consumer goods are imported. The pattern of economic trade with East Asia is consequently complementary.
The latter has a fully developed manufacturing industry base and, at the same time, a requirement for the mineral resources, as well as the fruits, seafood and other agricultural products in which Latin America is so rich. The opposing seasonality of southern and northern hemispheres enhances this symbiosis and extends further the choices for Asian consumers.
Service routings adjustment
Evergreen has adjusted its service routings, greatly cutting down the transit time for Chilean exports to East Asia
Among the Latin American countries, Chile, with the longest coastline of any country in the world, stretching to more than 4,300 kilometres, has an extraordinary range of climate patterns, which endows it with a vast array of natural produce, from both the land and ocean.
In response to customer demand for exporting such commodities, Evergreen has adjusted its service routings, greatly cutting down the transit time for Chilean exports to East Asia and therefore, assisting local fresh produce exporters to take advantage of business opportunities.
Efficient shipping transportation
Evergreen Line is committed to providing efficient shipping transportation throughout its global service network. In addition to an on-going fleet renewal program, the line has also expanded its regional operations in recent years.
Currently, Evergreen Line has established its own agency offices in more than 30 countries around the world in the belief that this commitment will provide superior transport services for its customers.
