Portonave exceeds 100,000 TEU in a single month

After hitting the 95,000-TEU mark in December last year, Portonave exceeded this to handle more than 100,000 TEU in a single month. The terminal’s new handling record was achieved on February 26 during the operations of the ship E.R Canada, closing the month of February with 102,524 TEU handled. In addition, January 2021 represented the best January ever recorded in the history of the Terminal – with 80,594 TEU handled – an increase of 33% compared to the same month of 2020.

Imports, which fell at the beginning of the pandemic until the middle of last year, have recovered in recent months and maintain a positive trend. Exports, which accounted for 35% of Portonave’s total turnover in 2020, are also growing, driven by wood and frozen chicken. 2020 closed on a high note, with an increase of 18.8% in comparison with 2019. In all, 893,627 TEU were handled in the 12 months of 2020.
