Cool, calm and collected containers

When it comes to containers there are always choices: the size, the volume you want, the products you want to ship and the need for either a dry or reefer unit. Transmar is the leading Egyptian container line because we have made a real difference to our customers and their logistic supply chains using a variety of containers on our scheduled routes. Our services are based on tried and tested operations. We appreciate it takes something special to gain your business - and we think that's what we have. For exporters looking for refrigerated containers then we believe our reefers should be your top choice.

In 2019 we are introducing new reefers to our container fleet and with the citrus season now in full flow they will be handling the current crop of oranges, grapefruits, lemons, limes as well as assorted snack foods and confectionery. The opportunities for exporters to use refrigerated containers grow each year: new food product lines and the resumption of exports in strawberries and guava mean there is likely to be further demand for reefers in the coming year.

Agricultural exports from Egypt were up by 13% in the period 2017-2018 and the overall exports from Egypt to Arab countries reached 1.28 million tons at around $680.96 million. There are other areas that exports are growing, particularly to the EU and the UK, while exports to European countries that are outside the EU zone rose to more than 547,000 tons with a value of $238.48 million in this same period. There is an ongoing trend and we see the use of reefers as becoming more important in the early part of 2019 as new regulations and inspection measures to ensure the quality of its agricultural exports raises the bar for Egyptian food exports.

At Transmar we don't simply ship containers. We work closely with you to give you the best service, at the right price and with the equipment and people to make every shipment easy and hassle-free. Our reputation in dry and reefer containers is based on supplying customers with the right units and schedules to ensure deliveries are made on time.
