Ghanem RORO Notice - ACL Grimaldi WAF Trade Update

Important for RORO Shippers, per ACL. “We are aware that West Africa shipments delivered to Grimaldi have dwelt at US Ports longer than usual recently as we were challenged by increasing volumes and strong global demand for RoRo tonnage. … we want to reassure you that Grimaldi committed to deploying extra tonnage, which already in service; there are now two more PCTCs deployed in the USAWAF service for a total of 7 Liner vessels.  This extra capacity will allow us to load all the on the ground inventory (approximately 15,000 units) aboard four vessels calling US ports within the next few days.

 We also recognize that units delivered as runner may not start due to long periods of inactivity at the terminal. If a unit delivered to Grimaldi as a runner on or before April 30 does not start during the loading operations for one of the below voyages, we will endeavor to forklift or tow it aboard that voyage (or the next one if necessary for operational reasons) at no extra cost to you: GDK0626 - GLG0326 - GSI0526 - GCT0426.”
