An order of approximately 1,900x40-Feet High-Cube refrigerated containers is planned to be deployed during 2016. The new advanced and environmentally friendly containers were specifically designed to accommodate the ZIMonitor service and received a special prefix: ZMOU.
ZIM has partnered with Teva Pharmaceutical Industries, a leading global pharmaceutical company, on a successful pilot of the ZIMonitor service that addressed Teva's uncompromising commitment to the quality of its products and its dedication to meet the requirements of its customers. Upon the successful completion of the pilot, the ZIMonitor service quickly gained popularity among ZIM's customer base.
