Logistics service providers: duisport increases container throughput by 12% in the first half of the year

Duisburg, 26.07.2017 - Container throughput at Duisburger Hafen AG (duisport) increased by 12% year-on-year to 2.01 million TEU in the first half of 2017.

Container handling accounts for around half of total goods handling and is the duisport Group's most important goods segment. Total goods throughput increased by 7% to 34.8 million tons in the first half of the year. While ship handling reached the previous year's level, rail handling increased by 14% and truck handling by 7%.

The increase in throughput was driven by the general cargo segment, particularly combined transport. "We expect moderate growth in the second half of the year, as a good level of throughput was already achieved in the same period of the previous year," says Erich Staake, duisport's CEO. red/cd
