Marport has strengthened its partnership with CMA CGM following the launch of regular FEMEX service calls at the Turkish container terminal.
The first call took place on 3 July with the arrival of CMA CGM MARLIN. The service strengthens Marport’s role as a gateway linking trade between Northern Europe and Türkiye.
Located at the crossroads of Asia, Europe and the Middle East, Marport is one of Türkiye’s largest container terminals. The company said the expanded cooperation reflects its growing role in international container shipping.
The FEMEX service connects four major ports in the Marmara and İzmir regions with key ports in Northern Europe.
The service also offers connections through transshipment hubs in Malta and Algeciras, direct calls at Piraeus and intermodal links via Felixstowe. CMA CGM said these connections provide faster and more reliable logistics solutions for customers.
“As Marport, we are proud to be a strategic port of choice for the world’s leading container shipping lines,” said Alp Çapa, Deputy Chairman of Arkas Holding Ports and Terminal Operations Group.
“Strengthening our cooperation with CMA CGM not only expands the service network we offer to our customers but also elevates our operational efficiency to the next level. The regular selection of Marport by the FEMEX service is a significant indicator of our terminal’s strategic position within the international transportation network.”
Çapa added that the partnership will strengthen Türkiye’s competitiveness in global logistics and support the country’s foreign trade.
