Israel's ZIM shipping is launching a new shuttle service between Mexico and Tampa, Florida, in mid-December, the company announced last week.
The new service will deploy a 1000-TEU vessel on a weekly, fixed-day schedule between the port of Altamira, Mexico and Tampa. The service will depart Altamira on Fridays and call at Tampa on Mondays.

Yoram Dallman, ZIM VP Latin America Busines Unit, said: "The new MTS is a valuable addition to our growing regional network, strengthening our position as the fastest-growing ocean carrier in the Mexican market. MTS will enable ZIM customers to benefit from a fast, reliable connection and top-level customer service."
