COSCO ASIA, operated by COSCO Shipping Lines, has recently docked at Xiamen Free Trade Zone's Hairun Terminal, marking the launch of the new WSA3 service route between Asia and the west coast of South America and creating another efficient maritime gateway for regional foreign trade.

COSCO ASIA carried around 1,200 containers, exporting various high value-added products, including automobile parts, architectural ceramics, quartz stone resources, and baby necessities.

This fully demonstrates Xiamen Port's capacity as an international shipping hub to drive the development of hinterland industries and maintain global connectivity.
