The company also celebrated the first maiden call for its existing ‘Chennai Express’ service at the new container terminal in Ennore Port, some 15 miles north of Chennai.
With a total capacity of 800,000 TEUs, it offers congestion free approach roads that provide greater ease of doing business. Faster turnaround times -by up to 24 hours- are expected, as are pro-active cargo updates and lower local transportation costs to customers.
The port has a permissible draught of 15m and handles export/import of automobiles, temperature-controlled cargo, heavy machinery and equipment units.
