TOKYO — Japanese container shipper Ocean Network Express (ONE) unveiled a Japan-built ship on Tuesday, one of 15 vessels it plans to launch in the next two years as it looks to mitigate risks from ongoing U.S.-China tensions.
“We like to think we are an international company, truly a global international company,” said CEO Jeremy Nixon at the christening of a ship at an Imabari Shipbuilding plant in Mihara, Hiroshima prefecture, on Tuesday. “I’m very pleased to say that this was the first set of ships that we built, which are owned by ONE.”
