Matson Shipping (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.
Fast
& Reliable
As
a leader in Pacific shipping, Matson continues
to strengthen its ocean transportation services
through fleet enhancements, industry leading
on time arrival records and support of current
efforts to improve Hawaii and Guam's port
infrastructure to best meet future growth.
In recent years, the Matson fleet has welcomed
four newly-built containerships, all equipped
with more fuel-efficient diesel engines,
state-of-the-art shipboard technology and
a number of "green" environmentally
friendly design elements. We also modified
one of our containerships by adding a new
garage unit, increasing the company's ro-ro
capacity by 120 percent. The fleet enhancement
is part of a multi-phase program commenced
in 2003 that provides Matson's auto customers
two essential service features: frequency
of service and ro-ro capacity. Equally important,
Matson is working with other carriers and
local officials in developing plans for
a port modernization program in Hawaii and
addressing similar issues in Guam related
to upgrading its port infrastructure.
Matson's
China - Long Beach Express has established
a strong reputation in the Transpacific
trade for reliable, expedited service from
Xiamen, Ningbo and Shanghai to Long Beach,
consistently delivering the best transit
times in the trade and offering next day
cargo availability on the West Coast.
All
of Matson's Pacific services are further
enhanced by the vast transportation network
of the company's subsidiary, Matson Logistics.
Matson Logistics is a leading provider of
multimodal transportation services to the
North American market, including domestic
and international rail intermodal service,
long haul and regional highway brokerage,
supply chain services and LTL transportation

services that encompass warehousing, distribution,
and international freight forwarding. Matson
Logistics serves a broad range of customers
and industries with customized transportation
solutions and award-winning service.
At
Matson, customer satisfaction is our top
priority. We're firmly committed to providing
our customers with industry-leading service
wherever their transportation needs take
them.
