Evergreen Marine Corp. is considering removing thousands of containers from its Ever Given ship to get the goods moving to their final destinations after an Egyptian court seized the giant cargo ship over a compensation feud.
“Customers are asking when their boxes will be delivered after the ship seizure, and the prospect of moving the containers to other ships and delivering them to the clients in Europe is now on the table,” a person directly involved in the matter said.
“It won’t be easy to do, but there are a number of options,” this person said. “Empty ships can be deployed to pick up boxes and some can be loaded to other container ships crossing on the same route to Europe.”
