CSAV: Volumes continue upward
Chilean carrier CSAV said it lifted 204,100 TEU of containerized freight in March, 44 percent more than the 141,300 it moved in March 2009. Last month was busier for CSAV than any month since at least January 2008.
CSAV also said in its monthly report that rates are at their highest point since December 2008. The company's freight index, set at 2,000 to reflect the average rate for 2008, hasn’t been above 1,800 since December of that year. But since bottoming out in August 2009 at 1,246.8, the index has climbed, reaching 1,741.6 last month.
