The first ship to arrive at the Moín Container Terminal last week was
Hamburg Süd's Polar México containership, with a Nominal Capacity of 3,947 TEU, arriving from Panama.
The permit, which is subject to meeting all safety and service
requirements, will enable the transfer of all commercial container ships currently serviced at Puerto Limón and Puerto Moín to the MCT.
Thanks to the Moín Container Terminal,
we will no longer be a port for small boats that require merchandise to be transferred to reach their final destination, but a port that is able to receive today's largest container ships with direct connections and reliable intermodal links to key markets," Waugh explained.
