Dear Colleagues,
Welcome to the re-launch of our Maersk & Safmarine NEWSLETTER. I hope you will enjoy
reading it.
This NEWSLETTER is edited and completed by one of our dedicated team. The newsleer
s being published to hopefully improve our in-house communicaon and understanding
of who we are, where we are and - perhaps most importantly where we are headed. It is
also a chance to bring us all a lile closer not least our oces in Lahore, Faisalabad andour port oce at Port Qasim.
We are in the middle of launching our MUST WIN BATTLES and with that will also begin
work (a lile) on our company DNA through CULTURAL AMPLIFIERS. Our industry has
never been stac and the changes shipping is undergoing are and will connue to be dra-
mac. It will be a journey; just as previous strategies have been, however with your acve
parcipaon it will be successful and for sure not a boring one. Im looking forward to
this.
First quarter of performance has been fair. Our volumes are slightly above and revenue
s on target. It is sll very early in the day and we have a long way to go, it is nonethelessa good start. The rst quarter also put some of our key trades under increased pressure
due to increased compeon on routes that had tradionally been our strongholds.
The people and their talent are what really stand out here in Pakistan. We have a great
foundaon to build on making us even stronger however is key. For us to bring our A
game to the table it is necessary for us to become more pro-acve and to react faster
with dynamic strategies when our trades are under threat.
Best Regards,
Morten Moller Jensen
Cluster Director Pakistan & Afghanistan

Upcountry Customer Corner
M
aersk Lahore oce recently host-
ed Nestle Pakistan for the much
renowned Customer Corner
event. Visitors were Mr. Salim
Masih (Import Ocer, Nestle Pakistan) and Mr.aheer( Import Manager, Nestle Pakistan). Nes-
e having imported 479 FFE with Maersk Paki-
tan in 2012 alone, is among the top Global Key
lients operang in Pakistan .
estle have been included as part of our launch of the Customer CARE ini-
ve in mid 2012. Since the Lahore oce has undergone some major per-
onnel changes in the past two years, it was also a very good opportunity for
he new sta to beer acquaint themselves with the Nestle team.
rior to this customer corner visit, day to day business between Maersk and
estle was already funconing very smoothly. So the main agenda of the
meeng was not to hammer out soluons to any long running disputes. The
ocus was more on relaonship building, geng to know the customers
usiness beer and of course quizzing the customer on ways to further im-
rove our service levels to Nestle.
uring the discussion with them it was encouraging to see that their overall
xperience with Maersk was very posive as they praised our global net-
work coverage and the easy accessibility of our sta. At the same me they
ointed out a very interesng area of improvement, which was mulple in-
oicing.

Safmarine Pakistan has launched a plaorm to improve relaonshipbuilding with its customers. With three customer facing funcons;Sales, Customer Services and Finance issues can now be resolved via one
common plaorm where employees can interact with their customers.
It had been idened that with the excepon of Sales, employees in the
other departments rarely interacted with the customers. Communicaon
via email and telephony misses out on the eecveness of face to face
interacons. Importance of physically meeng with customers can be aptly
understood from following:
As part of Safmarines strategy to dierenate on its Accessand lead the
market in Experience for its customers, the CEP plaorm was launched in
Feb 2013. The plaorm enables employees of Safmarine to engage with
the customer through its 3 customizable formats:
Strategic Client Review
Target strategic global and local clients for business development meengs
involving personnel from all customer facing departments.
Meet n Greet
Arrange weekly casual meengs with customer for relaonship building
with account managers.
Resoluon:
Approach customers proacvely for the Resoluon of issues to make our
customers feel valued and important. All Safmariners have the liberty to
idenfy an issue, assemble a team, schedule meeng with the customer
and execute the Resoluon.
Customer Engagement Plaorm
When there is a need for the expression of emoons, . when one is
aempng to persuade others, or when tasks require consensus on issues
that are aected by atudes or values of the group members.
(Straus and McGrath on the importance of physical interacons)
Fieen strategic clients selected for 2013
based on previous year CY and volumes.

Only Three Lines posted sig-nicant prots in 2013
1.CMA-CGM
2.OOCL
3.MAERSK LINE
The ocean container industry may
make a decent prot in 2013 asaverage freight rates and volumes
are expected to increase 3 to 4 per-
cent and bunker costs to decline 1.5
percent.
According to Drewry Container lines
can stay in the black in 2013, only if
they refrain from the kind of rate
war waged in the rst quarter of
2012.
Drewry said carriers managed to turntheir results around last year
through a combinaon of prudent
capacity management and unity on
freight rate increases. However it is
said that aer a protable third
quarter, many carriers lost money
again in the fourth quarter. The
three major carriers CMA CGM,Maersk Line and OOCL returned a
meaningful operang prot for the
full year neutralizing losses for the
rest of the industry.
Drewry Sees Beer Fortunes for Shipping in 2013
There was a massive turn-
around in global container
shipping industry prot of
$ 280 Million
in 2012 compared to a

PKC Karachi Oce
The incident of a stray bullet passing
through the glass window in the galley at
PKC Head oce posed serious concerns for
the management. The challenge was to nd
a soluon for the safety of our employees,without damaging oce aesthecs. Aer a
thorough evaluaon following soluons
were implemented.
Exisng window glasses have been
strengthened by axing 350 micron Armor-
coat lms to protect them from shaering
in the event of a bomb blast and to reduce
bullet speed.
The challenge was great. We were all wor-
ried aer the incident and wanted a quick
soluon for the safety of our employees
said Amanatullah Ansari, Administraon
Manager. He added that they did not want
to convert the oce into a fort.. The glass
soluon was perfect with regards to safety
and aesthecs. Execuon of the project
was conducted eciently by our admin-
istraon team dealing tacully with our
new vendors. Our oce is much safer place
now.

FBR, as many of you know, is a new analycal and management reporng soluon that will give novel transparency to varia-
ble costs (as well as other costs, revenue and yield) across our business. One of the key fea-
tures will be the visibility to the "true unit cost" development, by allowing mix, volume, RoE
and other eects to be stripped out from the average rate. The granularity will be very high,
allowing cost comparisons e.g. between dierent ports, terminals, corridors, vendors, moves,size/types, etc.
According to Jakob Stausholm, FBR is the heart of our strategy.
Essenal for Maersk Lines StrategyFBR has been introduced as a key project in Finish the Foundaon one of Maersk Lines four
Must Win Bales.
akob pointed out that a vast amount of data stands under ulized in FACT. 10 years down the road we are yet to extrac
substanal business value from FACT underulizing its potenal.
FBR Implementaon in Pakistan Cluster:t was an extremely challenging task to implement FBR in Pakistan cluster, which has cost reporng in 5 dierent countries
and 11 purchasing organizaons. Pakistan accounts for the highest unit cost and worlds second highest cluster cost in the
Maersk Liner business.
An unimaginable world without TICOt was unimaginable to work without legacy systems (TICO, MEMS and FIR-II) which were at the heart of Maersk Lines re
porng structure said cluster cost manager Rizwan Pir . He also added that the successful sign -o in FBR is indeed a momen
of celebraon aer extensive eorts in migraon of data into new system. It is the beginning of new chapter for Maersk Line
where the true focus will now be on data driven decisions in a global landscape.
More to Follow (Other systems to Obey)
There are several updates in pipeline as other systems will implement the same brand logic as FBR, such as other system
ike Yoda and PULS weekly bookings. To accommodate separate reporng for Maersk and Safmarine Brand has been im
plemented in FBR reporng followed by inclusion in FBR forecasng.
