You need the container number and the container agency.

Nearly all container agencies have web tracking facilities for their containers.

I would imagine "Supreme" and "Far East" are too vague.

Can you find out the name of the shipping line and then ring them up?

All containers are on a tracking system although some agencies don't give public access to their systems.

Basically, you need more precise information. A lot of UK bound containers are transhipped in Rotterdam. Therefore, you need the container number really.
