APL's tagline is apt: moving business forward. The company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Singapore's Neptune Orient Lines (NOL), provides container shipping services to customers around the world. APL's fleet consists of about 150 vessels, serving some 180 ports worldwide. It also operates several marine terminals in the US, China, Japan, Thailand, and Vietnam. APL's partnerships enable it to offer intermodal transportation to move dry, climate-controlled, hazardous, and oversized cargo inland via combinations of ship, train, and truck. By trade volume, APL's two largest markets are the Asia-Middle East route and the trans-Pacific route. APL and sister company APL Logistics are the principal business units of NOL.
