MSC brings shipping to the heart of Paris
[ June 9, 2025 // Chris Lewis ]MSC officially opened its new Medlog Inland Terminal at Paris-Bruyères on 4 June. The multimodal platform provides a direct link between the port of Le Havre and inland destinations across Europe, combining road, rail and barge transportation.
Located 40km north of Paris, the 11-hectare hub began operations in late 2024. It also offers container maintenance and repair, storage and reefer services for the agri-food and pharmaceutical industries and can handle breakbulk and project cargo.
It has a two-track rail terminal and 230-metre-long river quay, with an annual capacity of over 100,000TEU.
It forms part of a wider investment programme, the TN MSC Port 2000 project, led by Terminal Investment Limited (TiL), MSC’s port-operating arm which aims to connect local and global markets more efficiently through Le Havre port.
