Ghanem RORO Port Notice - Grimaldi ACL BWI Dundalk: Please note and advise your drivers accordingly. Please send booking requests to [email protected]

Per ACL, “Baltimore Dundalk BWI / WAF Roro lot 1501 will not be accepting Forklift Non-Runner or Towable Non-Runner units on Monday, June 8th. The lot will still be open to receive drivable running units.”

⚠️ Right now, shippers across the board are bleeding money — not from bad rates, but from compliance gaps and surprise surcharges they never saw coming.

Fuel surcharge spikes. Documentation errors. Port-side penalty fees. They add up fast — and most shippers don't know until the invoice hits.

The global RORO shipping market is worth $78.4 billion — and it's growing fast. 📈

But here's the truth: more capacity means more unqualified partners entering the market — and shippers who trust the wrong one pay the price in delays, compliance failures, and damaged cargo.

At Ghanem Forwarding LLC, we are an FMC-licensed NVOCC — federally regulated, bonded, and operating under U.S. Federal Maritime Commission oversight. We offer weekly RORO sailings from Baltimore, Jacksonville, and Freeport to West Africa, the Middle East, and Europe.

✅ Real booking confirmations
✅ Accurate export documentation before vessel cut-off
✅ Live VIN tracking via MyGhanem RORO App
✅ A real person when you call — not a bot

Don't gamble with your cargo. Ship smart. 📞 Call us today.

Important Ghanem RORO Notice - Sallaum Lines Forklift Fee Increase Effective July 1st, 2026: Please note, per Sallaum. “Due to continued increases in operational costs, including terminal handling and stevedoring expenses associated with forklift units, the Forklift Fee will be increased by $100 for all Ports of Loading, effective July 1, 2026.”

Ghanem RORO Notice - ACL Grimaldi WAF Trade Update: Important for RORO Shippers, per ACL. “We are aware that West Africa shipments delivered to Grimaldi have dwelt at US Ports longer than usual recently as we were challenged by increasing volumes and strong global demand for RoRo tonnage.

Despite these challenges, we want to reassure you that Grimaldi committed to deploying extra tonnage, which already in service; there are now two more PCTCs deployed in the USAWAF service for a total of 7 Liner vessels.

This extra capacity will allow us to load all the on the ground inventory (approximately 15,000 units) aboard four vessels calling US ports within the next few days.

We also recognize that units delivered as runner may not start due to long periods of inactivity at the terminal. If a unit delivered to Grimaldi as a runner on or before April 30 does not start during the loading operations for one of the below voyages, we will endeavor to forklift or tow it aboard that voyage (or the next one if necessary for operational reasons) at no extra cost to you: GDK0626 - GLG0326 - GSI0526 - GCT0426.”

🚢 BIG news for shippers moving cargo from the USA to Nigeria —

More carriers. More vessels. More sailings to Lagos.

What does this mean for you? It means more options, more competitive rates, and more flexibility — whether you're shipping a car via RORO or moving a full container load of commercial cargo.

Major players like MSC and ACL serve the USA → Lagos lane for containers. For RORO vehicles, carriers like ACL and Sallaum Lines keep wheeled cargo rolling. And now, with MSC's new Lekki Port feeder service active since May 30, Nigeria has a third modern discharge terminal to reduce congestion at Apapa and Tin Can Island.

At Ghanem Forwarding LLC, we track every carrier move so you don't have to. We book, document, coordinate, and communicate — so your cargo moves on time, every time.

🚢 Big news for shippers to Nigeria — Lekki Port just got a weekly feeder connection!

MSC has officially launched a new weekly feeder service linking Lekki, Nigeria and Lomé, Togo — and that changes the game for your vehicle shipments.

Here's what you need to know:
📍 The service rotates: Apapa → Tincan/Lagos → Lekki → Lomé → Apapa
🛳️ Lomé now acts as a transhipment hub, funneling cargo directly into Lekki
🚗 This gives shippers a NEW entry point into Nigeria beyond the traditional Apapa/Tincan terminals
📅 Service is now LIVE as of end of May 2026
