International Container Terminal Services Inc., said its Pakistan operation, Pakistan International Container Terminal Services (PICT), has serviced the inaugural call of the newly launched UAE-Indian Subcontinent-Gulf service (UIG) at the Port of Karachi.
The UIG feeder service, a joint initiative between Abu Dhabi Ports’ Safeen Feeders and Singapore-based Bengal Tiger Line, covers two loops from the United Arab Emirates to the Indian subcontinent and the upper Gulf region.
“It strengthens the connection between the East and West trade hubs and significantly enhances the region’s global competitiveness. The service is operated by three 2,800 nominal vessels and connects nine regional ports across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Pakistan and West India,” ICTSI said.
