Marfret Egypt is your new shipping route speeds up trade between Egypt and Italy!
In mid-October 2022, a new service called "Egypt-Italy Express" launched. It operates between Genoa and Salerno in Italy, and Alexandria in Egypt. The route is served by the "Lydia", a container ship with a capacity of 400 TEUs (Twenty-foot Equivalent Units). This was the ship's maiden voyage to the Old Port terminal in Alexandria.
The shipping company, Marfret, collaborates with Pan Marine, a well-established maritime agency in Egypt, to ensure smooth operations. To handle the expected increase in cargo, Marfret sent 200 new reefer containers from Genoa in support of the new service.
This new establishment strengthens the already close trade ties between Italy and Egypt. Italy is actually Egypt's second biggest trading partner in Europe, and their businesses collaborate in many sectors.
