Seaboard Marine is pleased to announce the enhancement of its U.S. Gulf service from Houston and New Orleans to the Caribbean, Central, and South America. Effective October 29, we will include a weekly direct call from Houston and New Orleans to Kingston, Jamaica, improving the transit times to several other markets. 

 

The new direct call to Kingston, Jamaica will serve as a key transshipment hub, improving connections from Houston and New Orleans to Barbados, Cayman Islands, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Guyana, Haiti, and Trinidad. 

 

Vice President of South America, Piero Buitano, said, “Seaboard Marine remains committed to reliability and efficiency to meet the needs of our import and export customers. This enhancement will benefit shippers of both southbound and northbound cargo, providing them with superior speed to market and strengthening their supply chain performance.” 

 

The weekly service will commence Friday, October 29, 2021, from Houston. For more information regarding cargo cut-offs, departures, arrivals, and transit times, please download the service profiles below or visit our service routes page to view these service enhancements.
