The IMT Terminal in the port of Genoa, terminal operator controlled by Ignazio Messina & C group, received this week the first call of two ro-ro ships operated by Grandi Navi Veloci, thus officially entering the market of the Motorways of the Seas.
CADENA 3 and CAROLINE RUSS are deployed on the Genoa-Termini Imerese and on the Genoa-Palermo-Malta links. The terminal move, away from the old port, helps to reduce the summer congestion at the ro-pax ferry berths.
GNV is 100% controlled by MSC Group. MSC Group has a 49% participation in Messina.
