MSC is pleased to participate in the SS Rice News Convention 2026, joining rice industry stakeholders from around the world for one of the sector's leading platforms for market insights and industry dialogue. Bringing together MSC's rice transportation specialists from across Asia, the event provides an opportunity to engage with exporters, importers, traders, freight forwarders, and other key stakeholders across the global rice value chain.

As the world’s largest container shipping line, MSC understands the specific requirements of moving rice. Because this moisture-sensitive staple feeds over half the global population, it requires specialised care. Leveraging decades of agricultural logistics experience, we connect major global rice producers to key consuming markets. From smart temperature tracking to food-grade cargo, MSC delivers secure, reliable transport solutions that keep global supply chains moving efficiently.

Navigating the Complexities of Global Rice Logistics
Transporting rice on a global scale presents unique logistical challenges. As a primary staple, its distribution requires specialised care to protect against temperature drops and moisture spoilage during transit.

To maintain food quality, modern agricultural supply chains rely on integrated, door-to-door transportation frameworks. Coordinating inland transit, port operations, and ocean freight under a single network simplifies complex trade corridors. This unified approach ensures vital food supplies move efficiently and securely from origin to final destination.

At the SS Rice News Convention 2026, visitors to the MSC exhibit will discover how we address these demands through:

• Global trade services connecting rice-exporting countries in Asia with markets across Africa, the Middle East, Europe and beyond.
• Intermodal and door-to-door solutions that support seamless cargo flows through a combination of trucking, rail, barge and ocean transportation.
• MSC Extended Protection (EPR), providing additional protection and peace of mind throughout the transportation journey.
• Specialised rice transportation expertise, helping safeguard cargo quality through proven handling practices and operational excellence.

Enhancing Rice Supply Chains Through Digital Innovation
As digitalization continues to transform global supply chains, MSC is helping customers gain greater visibility and control over their rice shipments through a suite of advanced digital solutions.

Among these is MSC Smart Containers, which provide real-time information on shipment location and container conditions, helping customers monitor and manage sensitive rice cargo more effectively throughout transit.

Customers can also discover how MSC's digital solutions, including the myMSC eBusiness platform and electronic Bill of Lading (eBL), streamline booking, documentation and shipment management processes while improving efficiency and transparency.
