February 2 - Hyundai Merchant Marine (HMM) has appointed Inchcape Shipping Services (ISS) to handle its Australian container liner business.

Both HMM and ISS say that they are working together to ensure the transition to the new agency is a seamless one, with the agency head office remaining situated in the same St Leonards office as before.

HMM and ISS have assured all its export and import customers that from the beginning of this month, it will be "business as usual" for the Australian liner service.
