Clipper Timber Carriers starts Brazil/Europe link
Clipper has joined forces with African Services DK to start a liner service from North Brazil to Europe catering to the forest industry.
The first sailing is scheduled for second half of September, loading at Belem and Breves to Leixoes, Nantes and Flushing. The service will operate with a minimum three-week sailing frequency. It will employ open-hatch handy size vessels owned and controlled by Clipper.
African Services DK previously operated a similar service under the Tropimar Lines A/S name.
