MTA links up with Charter Link to boost services in HK, China, and India

SWEDEN's Maritime Transport & Agencies (MTA), soon to be rebranded Greencarrier Consolidators, have signed an exclusive agreement with Hong Kong-headquartered Charter Link to offer customers improved end-to-end capabilities and more direct services to and from China, Hong Kong, India and the Nordic markets.

"This strategic move is part of Greencarrier Group's long-term ambition in growing the LCL consolidation business. To mark the expansion, MTA will rebrand to Greencarrier Consolidators later this year," according to a company statement.

Nicolas Myren, CEO MTA, said: "I am very pleased that we have partnered up with such a well-established company in one of our most important regions of business. Together we will offer our customers in the Nordic and Baltic markets very competitive transport solutions."

Michael C Tsui, executive director of the Charter Link Logistics Group, said: "We are impressed by the Greencarrier Group's strong presence in the Nordic and Baltic region, and its vision in green shipping and sustainable logistics. Greencarrier Consolidators will strengthen our neutral LCL network and help facilitate further developments in key markets like China and India."

The partnership with Charter Link is founded on common values, culture, objectives and desire to expand the business together. Charter Link is a progressive and respected NVOCC and a perfect match as a long-term and stable partner for Greencarrier Consolidators.

"Charter Link is the right strategic partner when moving forward. Together we aim to become a leading neutral NVOCC operator in the Nordic, Baltic and German markets," said Mr Myren.
