When there is still one month to close the year, TCL has already added about 50 thousand TEU to the annual maximum reached last year.
In 2011, TCL closed the year with an accumulated of 512 thousand TEU. Now, in 2012, TCL closes November with a total of 565,105 TEU!
Comparing this year’s 11 months with last year’s, the reached growth exceeds 20% (20.7%).
It should be noted that on the start of 2012 the goal (a conservative one, obviously) was to equal 2011’s very good result. Now, one month ahead the end of the year, the 600 thousand TEU mark seems perfectly reachable.
One thing is clear: TCL will register this year another record result. And it will be the 13th in 13 (incomplete) years of the concession of the Leixões Container Terminal. And with that, it will strengthen its condition of the first national containers terminal.
