We’re excited to announce that STF Shipping, a new Chinese container shipping company, has officially launched operations with six vessels and a range of new service routes. Registered in Hong Kong last year, the company’s headquarters are in Shanghai, with additional offices in Ningbo, Seoul, Vladivostok, and Nakhodka.
