ACT/PACE Opens

Office In Toronto

Associated Container Transpor- tation/PACE Line has opened its own office in Toronto, effective

January 1, 1978, to accommodate the growing needs of the Ontario customers using PACE Line to

Australia and New Zealand.

PACE Line, a partnership of

ACT (Australia) and The Aus- tralian National Line, operates a fleet of modern containerships with heavy lift capacity in the

Australia/New Zealand trade.

This development in Canada is part of a worldwide emphasis on direct representation by ACT, which employs more than 3,000 persons internationally.

William G. Gordon, general manager of ACT (Canada), noted that the ocean carrier "wishes to express appreciation to McLean

Kennedy Ltd. for a high standard of representation during an asso- ciation stretching back to the

MANZ Line, which was the pred- ecessor service to PACE from

Canada." The association between

ACT and McLean Kennedy will in part continue through McLean

Kennedy's interest in Brunterm

Ltd.'s Rodney Container Terminal in Saint John, out of which Can- ada port PACE Line operates.

William D. Davidson, who joined

ACT (Canada) two years ago as marketing and sales manager, has been named manager, Ontar- io. He brings to his new position more than 17 years in transpor- tation, including a broad back- ground in the Australia / New

Zealand trade.

The new office will be situated at 11 Adelaide Street, West, To- ronto, Canada.
