French shipping line CMA CGM has started container train operations at the East-West Gate intermodal terminal in Hungary, following Maersk's earlier launch of depot and dry port services at the same site. The terminal serves as a crucial rail link where EU standard gauge meets Russian broad gauge and aims to connect Eastern Hungary's battery industry imports with disrupted grain exports from Ukraine, leveraging complementary freight needs.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Logistics Tech.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You can capitalise on new freight flows at Hungary's East-West Gate terminal, where unmet import and export needs converge due to Ukraine's war and local industry growth. This opens routes for logistics and shipping ventures beyond traditional Eurasian corridors.
