SCS MANAGES METROBOX

For the first half of 2008 overall, the index registered 13.7 days, which compares with the 22.9 days reported 12 months ago.

A joint-venture operation between Toll NZ and the Port of Tauranga, MetroBox provides services to all logistics and supply chain players. It recently undertook a NZ$1m facilities upgrade to position itself for significant expansion in the container depot market.

MetroBox chairperson Mario di Leva said the arrangement pairs the “best container yard location in Auckland” with SCS’ expertise as a depot operator and container repairer.
