A new Chinese player has entered the global liner shipping market. Backed by China's Fortune Global 500 enterprise Xiamen C&D Group, Greta Shipping is now live—with headquarters in Singapore and a strategic focus on emerging regional markets.
Three new feeder services launching mid-August:
JKX (Jebel Ali – Karachi Express) – Fully operated by Greta Shipping using the 2,444 TEU HUI FA, with weekly departures. Co-loaded with Hapag-Lloyd, this is Greta’s flagship self-operated service.
JIX1 (Jebel Ali – Nhava Sheva) – Slot chartered on Hapag-Lloyd’s IG1 service, launching August 11.
JIX2 (Jebel Ali – Kandla) – Slot chartered on Hapag-Lloyd’s KWF service, launching August 13.
All three services support dry, reefer, and dangerous cargo, and seamlessly connect with mainline services across the Middle East, East Africa, and Red Sea regions.
What sets Greta Shipping apart?
A "charter–purchase–newbuild" growth model focused on 1,500–4,000 TEU vessels.
Strategic presence in South Asia, Middle East, Red Sea, and Southeast Asia, rather than traditional deepsea lanes.
Early partnership with Hapag-Lloyd for co-loading and slot agreements.
Strong foundation in Xiamen C&D Group's global supply chain ecosystem, enabling long-term, integrated logistics development.
Greta Shipping's market entry reflects a broader trend: global shipping is shifting from long-haul globalization toward resilient, regionalized supply chains.
