GERMANY's Hapag-Lloyd has introduced its new Turkey Red Sea Express (TRE) service at Istanbul, Izmir, Aliaga, Jeddah, Aqaba and back to Istanbul from June 15.

The first port call of the new rotation will see the containership, Turkon Istanbul V, embark on the service from Istanbul.

Last month, Hapag-Lloyd partnered with IKEA Supply Chain Operations to decarbonise Hapag-Lloyd container exports from Asia.
