OnePort launch delayed again

OnePort, the pending joint-venture company between units of Hutchison Whampoa and the Wharf (Group), has again postponed its launch date.

Sources at OnePort, which will operate as the trade management portal of Hong Kong's main terminals, yesterday said the venture's launch, planned for this week, had been delayed.

A spokesman for the venture did not give a reason saying only: 'We may be ready next week.'

The company has had several false starts in the past year.
