Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) is a privately-owned Swiss-Italian international shipping line. Over the years, MSC has diversified its business from ocean shipping and logistics to include overland transportation and growing portfolio of port terminal investments.

In 2015, MSC, in conjunction with Maersk SeaLand, launched the 2M Alliance, which is a vessel-sharing agreement on the Asia-Europe, trans-Pacific and trans-Atlantic trade lanes.

In late 2021, MSC overtook fellow 2M Alliance member, Maersk, as the largest container shipping line, carrying a total of 23M TEU annually. 

To date, MSC operates a vessel fleet of 600 vessels, serving 230+ routes, across 155 countries and 500 ports of call. MSC teamed up with IoT tech firm, Traxens, to equip 50,000 of its dry cargo containers with sensors to keep better track of individual boxes.

MSC operates Gulsun-class vessels with a capacity of 23,756 TEU, which in 2019, were the top largest container ships in the world: MSC Ambra, MSC Febe, MSC Mia, MSC Leni, MSC Samar, MSC Gulsun.
