Scheduled for implementation in February 2025, immediately following the conclusion of the current 2M Alliance, the Gemini Cooperation promises to provide an unparalleled combination of reliability and reach. Maersk has chosen Hapag-Lloyd as a strategic partner due to shared ambitions and dedication to enhancing service quality for customers.
Key features of the new network include:
· Coverage of 7 major trades: Asia/US West Coast, Asia/US East Coast, Asia/Middle East, Asia/Mediterranean, Asia/North Europe, Middle East – India/Europe, and Transatlantic.
· A total of 26 mainline services, complemented by a global network of dedicated shuttles operating in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and the Gulf of Mexico.
· Seamless connections to a diverse range of transportation products and logistical services.
· Competitive transit times across strategic corridors.
While the 2M Alliance remains a highly reliable network for East-West trades until January 2025, Maersk assures its valued customers of a smooth transition to the Gemini network following the conclusion of the alliance. The company anticipates continued collaboration with MSC during this period and looks forward to sharing updates on the new network, including the vessel schedule, throughout the year.
