Pacific International Lines (PIL) has announced the commencement of its Imara Express (IMX) service, establishing a dedicated weekly shipping connection between India and East Africa. This new offering is designed to complement PIL's existing network across Asia and Africa, providing customers with expanded access to crucial growth markets in the East African region.
For freight forwarders and operations managers, this new service means increased capacity and potentially more direct routing options for cargo moving between India and East Africa. The weekly frequency offers greater schedule reliability, which can help in planning and optimizing supply chains. It may also lead to more competitive rates on this specific trade lane due to increased service availability and carrier competition, benefiting shippers by offering more choices for their freight.
