This solution is also aligned with our goal to reduce the overall carbon footprint of our operations and that of our customers."

The PIL Intermodal Service is now available in Africa, Australia, Cambodia, Guatemala, India, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Saudi Arabia, Thailand and China, according to the company's boss, who noted that PIL plans to roll out its intermodal service to other parts of the world in the near future.
