Port of Los Angeles sets handling record
In a time of backlog, the Port of Los Angeles has announced that its terminals processed 10 million container units in a 12 month period.
A ceremony took place at the Port’s Fenix Marine Services container terminal to watch the 10 millionth container being loaded onto the CMA CGM “Amergio Vespucci” recently.
When the Port of Los Angeles closes its 2020-2021 fiscal year books on 30 June, it is expected to have processed more than 10.8 million teu.
Over the past 12 months, port terminals have worked an average of 15 container ships each day, representing a significant increase in productivity - but not enough to curb the current congestion of vessels on the shores of California. (cd)
