Press Release: 29/11/2021
The X-Press Feeders Group signed for sixteen 1,170 TEU state of the art new build containerships.
The new container ships will be outfitted with ultramodern, dual-fuel engines, that can operate on regular fuel or green methanol, and are specifically designed to be highly fuel-efficient.
We look forward to the first vessels entering our Europe and Americas trade routes by Q4 2023, with all vessels joining the family by the end of 2024.
According to Shmuel Yoskovitz, CEO of X-Press Feeders:
"We are very excited to commission the building of these ships, that will provide cutting edge technology to deliver a balance of environmental sustainability and operational excellence. The X-Press Feeders Group is committed to maintaining an eco-friendly approach to expanding and modernising our global operated fleet."
X-Press Feeders would like to thank both China's New Dayang Shipbuilding Co. and Ningbo Xinle Shipbuilding Group, who will each be supplying 8 of the state of the art vessels.
