Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics (WWL) has started the year by introducing a new service departing Santander, Spain twice a month for South Africa and on to Australia. The enhanced product which includes additional capacity and extended port coverage reflects WWL’s ongoing work to extend its services to meet customers’ needs.
“WWL is excited to support manufacturer needs for ocean transportation from Spain to South Africa and Oceania”, says Ramon Oliete, Head of Iberia Branch for WWL. “In 2013, a total of 1.9 million cars were produced in Spain. Of that amount 90% or 1.7 million cars were exported. As we expect the shift toward greater manufacturing in Spain to continue, it becomes important to strengthen export-bound ocean service here.”
In addition to Santander, the company today has regular calls from Bremerhaven, Zeebrugge, Southampton and LeHavre in Europe.
The service is operated with WWL's flexible and modern fleet of RoRo vessels, adapted to carry a mix of cars, rolling equipment and breakbulk. Together with the extended ocean service in Santander, WWL also offers trucking and other inland distribution for the Iberian market.
