Plans of one overseas shipping company to begin a new Asia-Europe service have apparently been either put on hold or shelved for good. A few days ago the overseas shipping company involved in this affair, the Containership Company (TCC), had announced company plans to begin providing shipping services for customers in the Asia-Europe market, but more recently the firm has decided that the time isn’t right for this move and they would put the start of their second service on hold for now. The Containership Company has stated that it still has designs on business in the Asia-Europe market and this still isn’t out of the question. Apparently, the company is still in talks to charter more vessels for their plans for their Asia-Europe service, so the company could be just preparing better for the implementation of the second service. We’ll have to wait and see what happens in the future, to see if their plans continue to go forward though, and it’s always possible that they could drop these plans altogether.
This news probably isn’t that surprising to many watching the current situation in the shipping industry of the world, but it does kind of make you wonder what’s happening over at the Containership Company over the past few months. The firm does appear to be a little hesitant in many regards and backtracking is going to look a little suspicious to some customers that might have been looking forward the new service that the company had announced.
The timing of adding new shipping services is obviously very important to an overseas shipping company and they certainly want to be as sure of the demand for services as they can be, before beginning their plans. It could be that in a little while, the Containership Company will once again announce the start of the Asia-Europe service they originally announced, only it will be delayed a little, that’s all.
