Fires onboard the MV KMTC Shenzhen results in delays

Unfortunately, a fire broke out on a cargo ship containing a Seven Seas Worldwide container on its way to Port Klang, Malaysia, from Hong Kong. The incident occurred on Saturday, 12th August 2023. Thankfully, firefighters managed to control the blaze aboard the vessel MV KMTC Shenzhen within two hours.

We await further updates on our container's condition and any goods held within it. Only once the vessel has been fully discharged will we have a clearer picture of the full extent. If your shipment has been affected by this unfortunate incident, we'll contact you immediately. We expect to hear more by the end of this week.
