Picañol in the Far East

At the end of 1968 the Danish company Maersk inaugurated a new line to Asia, providing Picañol with direct access to the most important markets in the Far East. The "Charlotte Maersk "(13,900 GRT) was the first boat to ensure the new link between Europe and the Orient. After loading the familiar Picañol crates at Antwerp, some 164 President looms left for Hong Kong. Meanwhile, 100 looms went to our customer Textile Alliance, with the other 64 destined for East Asia Textiles Ltd.
