First shortsea shipping line connected to the Secure Chain

First shortsea shipping line connected to the Secure Chain

CMA CGM Short Sea Lines (SSL) Intra North Europe is the first shortsea shipping line in Rotterdam to switch to the Secure Chain.

Soon, shortsea containers will always be released to customers securely and reliably, without the need for PIN codes. Since SSL is part of CMA CGM, it uses the same computer system as the deepsea shipping line. As a result, the shortsea shipping line is able to quickly adapt. “When the Secure Chain announced that it would begin expanding to the shortsea sector, we immediately signed up. As an employer, we consider it our responsibility to ensure a safe working environment for our employees,” says Daniella Pauwels, Short Sea Director Benelux Cluster. “At the same time, we believe it’s important to contribute to making the entire logistics chain more resilient. We are now in the process of connecting customers.”
