Maersk signs exclusive container transport deal

Danish wind turbine manufacturer Vestas has teamed up with Maersk in a long-term strategic partnership for all its containerised transport needs.

The deal includes door-to-door transport from the company´s suppliers to their factories and service warehouses, as well as containerised site parts and transport equipment.

Airfreight shipments are included in the deal.

Non-containerised road transport and outbound shipments will continue to be managed by DSV and other partners.

The agreement will ensure that Vestas gets direct access to container capacity at a fixed price, says Vestas CEO Tommy Rahbek Nielsen.
