With over 15,000 TEUs, SP-SSA International Terminal (SSIT) handles the largest container volume to ever call a Vietnamese port

Two days after the visit from Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc to Cai Mep Thi Vai port complex, SP-SSA International Terminal (SSIT) successfully receives M/V MSC AURIGA as a direct container service to the United States belonging to MSC shipping line on March 22nd, 2021. Total volume of M/V MSC AURIGA handled in SSIT makes a record over 11,000 container boxes, equivalent over 15,000Teus (1Teu = twenty-foot equivalent unit) which is recorded as the highest container volume per vessel ever handled in Viet Nam.



With challenges of Covid situation impacting on the world economy and Vietnamese economy recently, SSIT has still maintained professional working way and good service delivery to customer. Therefore, SSIT has been trusted and selected to handle big vessels with very big volume from  MSC shipping line, as one of the top container carriers over the world.


“SSIT greatly appreciates the trust displayed by MSC, Mr. Boris Cohen (MSC's General Director) in allocating large container vessel to SSIT for cargo handling. SSIT will continuously strive to further improve its service quality, being one of the largest deep-sea terminals in the country, making an important contribution to the development of the Cai Mep and Vietnam seaport system”, said Mr. Nguyen Le Chon Tam, General Director of SSIT.
