Jun 21, 2013
SANTIAGO, Chile, CMC – The Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) says the container throughput in Latin American and Caribbean ports remained sluggish in 2012, confirming the slowdown in the region's foreign trade over the past year.
ECLAC on Wednesday attributed this to the recession in Europe and slower growth in the United States and China.
According to the ranking of container port throughput in Latin America and the Caribbean, published by ECLAC’s Maritime Profile, in 2010 the container port throughput in maritime terminals grew by 15.9 percent, which fell to 13.9 percent in 2011 and 4.3 percent in 2012.
