The first sailing on the Evergreen Line’s service is scheduled to depart from Qingdao on the 4th of September.

In addition to providing efficient shipping service between China and Northwest India as well as Pakistan, the pair of regional services will also further expand Evergreen Line’s global service network by improving connectivity via its transhipment hubs in Singapore, Port Klang and Colombo.
