MSC is returning to Singapore Maritime Week (SMW) to connect with customers and share exciting insights into our new standalone East/West network. Together with PSA, we will also be explaining how Tuas Port is boosting operational efficiencies for customers across Asia. Don’t miss our experts’ presentation at Expo@SMW on Wednesday 26 March 2025 at 10am.
Unlock your business with MSC’s new network
As a silver sponsor of SMW 2025, MSC will be speaking at the Expo Theatre for the first time. Jack See, General Manager of our Asia Regional Office’s Trade Department, and Jamie Deng, Line Manager for Transpacific Trade, will provide essential updates on the new MSC standalone East/West network and how it drives success for customers’ businesses, followed by an interactive Q&A session.
This unique network is built around our customers, offering the direct port pairs, flexibility and speed they need to operate in an era of elevated risk and evolving supply chain patterns. It features a total of around 35 loops across five key trades, including fast and reliable connections from Asia to North America, the Mediterranean and Northern Europe.
Port efficiency in focus
Our General Manager of Operations, Kelvin Tan, will then be joined by guest speaker Tan Liang Hui, PSA’s Vice President of Tuas Development, Strategic Port Technology, Solutions & Services, to explain how Tuas Port is taking operational efficiency to new heights. MSC-PSA Asia Terminal (MPAT) is operating at this state-of-the-art facility, which is playing an increasingly important role in our operations in Singapore, the world’s largest transshipment hub. Currently the world’s largest fully automated container terminal, Tuas Port will have an annual handling capacity of 65 million TEUs when fully completed in the 2040s.
Meet our team
At SMW from 25 to 27 March, we will also be welcoming customers to our booth at Suntec Singapore Convention and Exhibition Centre, Level 4, Hall 405, Booth H19. Reflecting SMW’s theme of ‘Actions Meet Ambition’, the booth will focus on MSC’s decarbonization journey. Come and learn about our latest initiatives, such as our industry-leading whale protection efforts. With an order book of 150 dual-fuel LNG (liquefied natural gas) vessels, MSC is investing in the largest and most ambitious fleet renewal programme in our industry.
Connecting Asia and Singapore to the World since 1996
MSC has been shipping cargo to and from Singapore for nearly 30 years, and we opened both our Asia Regional Office and MSC Singapore in the Garden City in 1996. Now, with the launch of our new standalone network, we are delighted to offer even more business opportunities to customers across the region.
"
The launch of MSC’s new standalone East/West network is a big milestone, which highlights our commitment to developing truly customer-focused solutions. With over 900 vessels and a capacity of more than 6 million TEUs, it offers unmatched control and responsiveness. We look forward to discussing at SMW 2025, the many benefits it brings to our customers.
