Utilising Crowley’s Avance-class vessels, the service links the port of Philadelphia’s Gloucester Marine Terminal and ports in Guatemala and Honduras.

Offering a five-day transit between the ports, Crowley said it enables “the most timely deliveries of food, apparel, industrial products and consumer goods to and from the Central America Northern Zone, which also includes El Salvador and Nicaragua”.

The new route between Philadelphia and Central America expands on Crowley’s operations in the Northeast Atlantic, where it serves Puerto Rico, the Eastern Caribbean and the Virgin Islands with a regular container service.
