New Russia–Nigeria Sea Route to Boost Trade With Mali
A new regular shipping line between Novorossiysk—a major Black Sea port—and Lagos is set to launch in mid-June.
The route will support exports of Russian agricultural products, equipment, and transport, while enabling imports of Malian cotton, a key crop with over 650,000 tonnes harvested annually, Russian Trade Representative in Nigeria Maxim Petrov told Russian media.
Operated by Russia’s A7 African Cargo Lines, the line will start with two 700-TEU container ships, with future plans to expand to Senegal.
