UNICORN CMBT has launched a fortnightly express containerised service between the Gulf and East Africa.
The service offers a named day option out of Dubai calling at the ports of Jebel Ali, Mombasa, Zanzibar and Dar Es Salaam. Two modern (5-year old) sister ships, CMBT Tana and Nahoon are dedicated to the route.
This service runs in addition to Unicorn-CMBT's mainline service with seven dedicated vessels shared with P&O Containers and Laurel Navigation.
They call at Durban, Dar Es Salaam, Mombasa, Karachi, Jebel Ali (Dubai) and Mumbai before returning to Durban via East Africa.
In addition the vessels service Mozambique ports, Nacala and Beira, and Colombo on an alternate basis.
