The man who more than any other is Mediterranean Shipping Company gives a rare interview in which he denies he is tempted into ordering more vessels, despite the bargain-basement prices on offer from some shipyards, and dismisses the notion that the carrier often considered to be the most aggressive of all lines only goes after market share. “The price is important, but not as [important] as freight rates and, with the rates of today, it is impossible to order new vessels.” Fascinating reading.
