    PHILIPPINES International Container Terminal Services, Inc's (ICTSI) cargo handling operations at the La Plata Port adjacent to Buenos Aires in Argentina, TecPlata, received the inaugural call of Zim Integrated Shipping Services' (ZIM) Patagonia Express Service (PES).

    The PES connects Argentinian trade to the United States and the Caribbean Gulf, among other destinations.

    ZIM's newly launched service links Argentina to the Caribbean and the US Gulf Coast through the ports of Kingston, a major Caribbean hub, and Houston in the Gulf of Mexico.

    The service marked its inaugural call at TecPlata with the arrival of the 1,000-TEU boxship Contship Key, and with its present network set up, is expected to call TecPlata every 45 days.

    "This strategic alliance with ZIM enables us to offer new services and logistics distribution to our clients. We are confident that this service will strengthen TecPlata's position as a strategic trade port on the East Coast of South America," said Juan Pablo Trujillo, TecPlata chief executive officer.
