European Coffee Federation Names MSC 'Shipping Line Of The Year' – CoffeeTalk

MSC has been named ‘Shipping Line of the Year’ by the European Coffee Federation (ECF) for 2023-24, recognizing its global commitment to excellence in the coffee shipping sector. The ECF, a key representative of the European coffee trade, comprises 16 national associations and 42 members, representing over 700 companies that handle approximately 35% of the world’s coffee trade volume. The Federation selects its ‘Shipping Line of the Year’ based on a performance-based survey of its Logistics Committee. MSC representatives, including Senior Vice President Captain Giovanni Cuomo, Vice President Vakur Germiyanoglu, and Trade Manager Cristiano Junqueira, attended the ceremony. MSC’s success in the global coffee trade is attributed to factors like tailor-made customer service from local experts, intermodal transport capabilities, dedicated warehouses, and fast, reliable transit times. The ECF specifically recognized MSC for its service quality, schedule reliability, and container availability during the 2023-24 period. MSC plans to further enhance its services for coffee shippers with the MSC Thermal Liner Solution, launched in 2024, which protects sensitive cargo, such as coffee beans, from temperature, moisture, condensation, and contamination, ensuring their quality and integrity throughout the shipping process.
