Our Specialised Services
The company has Mechanics to service, maintain and repair both its own hire fleet and customer reefer gen sets.
Apart from our competitive rates for high-standard repairs, as an added advantage, we utilise the waiting time for containers in the Port to carry out customer requirements to save possible future downtime. Also, we charge zero or minimum for transport costs because we are located adjacent or close to the Container Terminal.
Our Major Clients
The company’s major clients include Maersk, Hapag Lloyd, CMA-CGM, Emirates Shipping Line, and many others.
