Hanjin to Take Over APM Terminals’ Facilities

29 January 2010, 16:32 / SeaNews / Rating: 303
APM Terminals has announced entering into an agreement with Hanjin Pacific. Hanjin Pacific will take over APM Terminals facilities at Piers 76 and 77 in Kaohsiung and combine them into Hanjin’s current operations at Pier 78.  To ensure the smooth transition, with no disruptions to service, the two companies will cooperate for three months. On May 7, 2010, Hanjin will take over the management and operations of the consolidated facilities.  Financial details on the transaction were not made public.  The move has been approved by the Kaohsiung Harbor Bureau (KHB) and is in line with its Port Master Plan to integrate container terminal operations at Kaohsiung.  Martin Gaard Christiansen, Chief Executive Officer for APM Terminals’ Asia Pacific region stated, “For APM Terminals this move is a clear result of the more proactive way we currently are looking at optimizing our Global Terminal Network. The facility in Kaohsiung has served us well and we have been pleased with the support of the Kaohsiung Harbor Bureau (KHB) throughout our association. Market conditions have changed and we have decided business?wise it makes sense to transfer our Kaohsiung Pier 76?77 location to Hanjin.” GS Choi, CEO of Hanjin Pacific Corporation and Executive Vice President & Chief Executive Terminal Business Unit of Hanjin Shipping added, "Over the next few months, the newly expanded Hanjin Pacific terminal will be gearing up to serve some of the most important shipping lines in the world, including Maersk Line. The new operations at Kaohsiung will be fully operational by the second quarter of 2010 and will double the handling capacity of existing HPC services." In January 1994, when Kaohsiung Harbor Bureau launched an open bid for a new double-berth terminal, Maersk Taiwan and Maersk Line won the bid.
