NYK and Nile Dutch commence Asia-West Africa service

With the arrival of the ‘NYK Commodore’ at Shenzhen’s Shekou Container Terminal (SCT) in late June, Nippon Yusen Kaisha (NYK) and Nile Dutch launched the new SWAX (Asia-West Africa) service, which runs fortnightly between Asia, South Africa and West Africa. Four 2,260TEU vessels will be deployed on the 70-day round trip voyage. NYK and Nile Dutch will provide two vessels each.
