The latest vessel to berth
is MSC KAYLEY, marking another milestone for the port. The ship
with 16.5 meter draft successfully berthed at the port on Monday 9 Sep. In addition, another ship MSC SUAPE VII will soon
anchor at vizhinjam, underscoring its growing importance, soon after the
discharge of containers brought in here by the MSC KAYLEY.
With a total of five ships from the
Mediterranean Shipping Co (MSC) having berthed at the port, Vizhinjam is well
on its way to establishing itself as a key transshipment hub, positioning India
on the global shipping map.
This wave of arrivals reflects the port’s strategic potential and
operational readiness for larger global trade activity, said VISL in a Facebook
post.
