CHARLESTON, South Carolina, reported its reported its strongest October on record, with a throughput of 184,804 TEU, according to South Carolina Ports Authority (SCPA).
Fiscal year-to-date TEU volume is up five per cent, with 724,799 TEU handled since the port's fiscal year began in July.
"Container growth in October was broad-based across multiple segments, with particular strength of export loaded containers," said SCPA president and CEO Jim Newsome.
"All indicators are that the US port market will continue to grow, based on good performance of the global economy. We look forward to the addition of container volume from major manufacturing operations such as Volvo Cars, Samsung Electronics and Mercedes Vans going into 2018," he said.
Inland Port Greer also achieved its strongest October since the facility opened in November 2013, with 11,773 rail moves handled last month. | | | | | | | |
