MOL will start to use MOL ACE beginning 1 July 2015.

The Japanese group will market its car carrier services using its global network under the MOL ACE brand.

The group currently operates about 120 car carriers and provides a range of related services such as overland transport of completed vehicles, coastal transport and terminal operations in six nations, mainly in the rapidly growing Asian markets.
