Tirrenia Lines has announced that as of the 1^st of September 2017 they will begin operation of six weekly cargo shipments to Catania.

After an absence of more than 29 years, the ferry company has now announced plans to run daily crossings thereby solidifying its commitment to increasing its services to its customers.

Since the beginning of 2016 the ferry operator Grimaldi Lines have continually recorded positive profit margins, resulting in an increased awareness that new Freight routes have emerged. In order to capitalise on this opportunity (as well as meet these new customer requirements) they have announced a plethora of new routes, as well as established a number of key new partnerships.
