LAUNCH OF A NEW MARITIME SERVICE BETWEEN MOROCCO, TUNISIA, LIBYA, AND SPAIN

A new containerized shipping line linking Morocco, Tunisia, Libya, and Spain will open in the first quarter of 2024. Dubbed CARTHAGE CONTAINER LINE, this route will operate with a scheduled port call at the Port of Casablanca every 15 days. This initiative is the result of an alliance between Dubai-based shipowner Arco Lines Shipping and Tunisian shipowner Africa Marine Company. It will enable Moroccan operators, both importers and exporters, to benefit from regular frequencies between Morocco (Casablanca), Tunisia (Sfax), Libya (Misurata), and Spain (Barcelona and Castelleone), with reduced transit times.
