Good start for “Daily Maersk”

Daily Maersk satisfies customers.

Maersk Line says its Daily Maersk Asia-North Europe service that has been running for six months has achieved 97% reliability over that period and, more recently, has exceeded 99%.

Ole Pradsgaard, Daily Maersk Project Lead, said: “We are extremely pleased to see the on-time delivery rate for Daily Maersk improving month by month.”

The Danish shipping giant says the service has attracted customers because it offers daily cut-off times for cargo loading, rather than weekly, providing more flexibility for customers.

It also measures reliability based on container availability for gate-out at the destination port and not the transit time for service.

The line said the Daily Maersk had served more than 900 customers and shipped more than 93,500 containers, and had steadily gained popularity on trade lanes.
