China’s major ports see steady growth in container throughput in May, with over 23 million TEUs carried, up 4.2 percent from a year ago, according to a report from the state-run Xinhua News Agency.
The Ministry of Transport said on Thursday that the cargo throughput of monitored major ports surpassed 1.03 billion tonnes in May, a daily average increase of 3.2% over April.
In May, the container throughput of the Shanghai Port, one of China’s main container ports, reached 3.41 million TEUs in May, showing a daily average growth of 7 percent month-over-month. This suggests that the Port is gaining speed in its recovery.
