MSC Germany GmbH

MSC Mediterranean Shipping Company S.A., Geneva, Switzerland is a privately owned shipping line, founded in 1970, which has rapidly grown from a small conventional ship operator to become one of the leading global shipping lines of the world.

During recent years MSC’s maritime fleet has expanded substantially to consolidate its position as the second largest carrier in respect of container slot capacity and of the number of container vessels operated. At the end of September 2013, MSC was operating 459 container vessels with an intake capacity of 2.308.000 TEUs.

Nowadays, MSC is the leading provider of direct port calls, serving 316 ports on 6 continents through 200 direct and combined weekly liner services.
