KNOWING YOUR SHIPPING LINES IN YOUR TRUCKING BUSINESS

Hi readers, i am deeply sorry for going offline for the past one week. In fact i will like to share with you that this period is always our hottest period in the container business.

This is the time manufacturing firms import a whole lot of raw materials for their production because of the year is running to an end. Anyway i hope i was able to reply the mails as usual.

Today, i want to help you to know the shipping lines that operates in the container business. It is also important that you know them because nowadays,you might be asked to drop your empty container at a particular location different from the ports and if you don't know the line that you are carrying, you will driven your truck to the wrong location instead. This implies that you will have wasted the time you are supposed to be using carrying a loaded container. Don't you know that in Logistics operations, time is money.

Below are the list of the shipping lines.I will give the prefix associated with the shipping lines, that whenever you see the prefix written on the container, you will know the shipping line that own the container.

1. (Maersk Shipping Lines) Prefix written on their containers are as follows:PONU,MSKU,NEDU,TCKU,ETC

2 (Mediterranean Shipping Lines) Prefix written on their containers are as follows:MSCU.

3 (CMA CGM) Prefix written on their containers are as follows: CMAU,TCKU,FCIU,ETC

4. (Zim International Lines) Prefix written on their containers are as follows: ZIMU

5. (Hanjin Shipping Lines) Prefix written on their containers are as follows: HJCU, ETC

6. (Nile Dutch Shipping Lines)

7. Pacific Shipping Lines) Prefix written on their containers are as follows: PIL,MOLU,FCIU,MOAU,ETC

8. (China Shipping Lines) Prefix written on their containers are as follows: CCLU

These Shipping Lines are the major ones doing business in Nigeria.With Maersk Line the biggest of the among the shipping Lines.

I hope i have been able to educate you today. OK,if there is an instruction that all some containers are to be dropped at a particular location, if your truck was carrying a container such as MSKU0000000 or PONU0000000, you need to be told that it is a MAERSK LINE CONTAINER. Have a wonderful day. i have to go back to work, Busy period earnestly.
