Tailwind Shipping Lines, launched 2022 by German discount retailer Lidl (Schwarz Group) to secure its own Asia-Europe box capacity. A supermarket that got tired of waiting for space; Lidl built a container line so its shelves stay stocked.
Main trade areas: Intra-Asia, Mediterranean and North Europe.
Every Tailwind Shipping box carries an ISO 6346 number: four letters (the owner prefix), six digits and a check digit. Tailwind Shipping prefixes include TSHG and TAWU. Enter the container number, the bill of lading or the booking reference and Navo24 detects which one it is.
The tracker joins Tailwind Shipping's own events (gate out, loaded, departed, transhipped, discharged) with the vessel's AIS position, so you see where the box is now, not where it was at the last port call.
Before booking, compare sailings on your lane by transit time and real on-time reliability across all carriers, Tailwind Shipping included where it publishes schedules.
For the price, FreightRatesMCP shows market rates for 20GP, 40GP and 40HC on a port pair. After arrival, demurrage and detention start once Tailwind Shipping's free time runs out, and Navo24 counts the days left on every box.
Tailwind Shipping's Standard Carrier Alpha Code is TSHG.
Tailwind Shipping containers use the owner prefixes TSHG and TAWU, followed by six digits and a check digit.
Paste the container, bill of lading or booking number into the tracking box on this page. No sign-up is needed for a single lookup.
