Maiden call 'Seatrade Red' from New Zealand and Peru in Zeebrugge

On Tuesday, Seatrade’s new container service from New Zealand and Peru docked in Zeebrugge for the second time. After the Seatrade Blue made the first call at the end of March, this time it was the turn of the ‘Seatrade Red’ to experience her maiden call at Zeebrugge. On this Meridian Service, Seatrade is deploying four identical ships: the ‘Seatrade Blue’, ‘Red’, ‘White’ and ‘Orange’. They each have a capacity of 2,259 container slots, including 674 reefer plugs. In addition to these vessels, Seatrade is also deploying four chartered units. A feature of this new container service is that the cargoes are containerised.
