On 13 December 2017, a feeder vessel loaded with cargo from IKEA, the world’s largest furniture and home accessories retailer, arrived at Hutchison Ports Yantian. This marked the official launch of the Yantian-Humen feeder service.
Operated by Cheng Xin Shipping, the new service currently calls at Yantian three times a week, and will become a daily service in the first quarter of 2018.
