HMM Co., the biggest container-shipping line in South Korea, will continue deploying more vessels than usual to try to meet demand from the country’s exporters struggling to transport goods overseas.
The company has been operating more vessels since the second half of 2020 and will continue to use two or three extra ones a month for the rest of the year, an HMM spokesman said. It operates 77 ships in total, with the biggest able to carry up to 25,000 20-foot containers.
