The claim for the world’s first carbon neutral-certified container shipment has gone to a box loaded on a Mediterranean Shipping Co (MSC) vessel in Ecuador’s Port of Guayaquil.

The container was loaded onto the 4,860-teu MSC Geneva (built 2006) at the Contecon Guayaquil (CGSA) terminal, employing a logistics process involving environment-friendly supply chain players, from the exporter to the port and distributor.
