Germany’s shipping giant Hapag-Lloyd AG is launching three container trains from Odesa – to Dnipro, to Kyiv and to Kharkiv. Each ‘block train’ will leave Odesa three times a week with 30-45 containers. A fast-growing segment, container trains grew by 41% last year in Ukraine. Based in Hamburg, Hapag-Lloyd is the world’s fifth largest container carrier in terms of vessel capacity.
