UK's Teesport sets new annual box handling record in November

PD Ports, recently bought by Toronto-based global asset manager Brookfield, has announced that Teesport on the England's north-east coast handled for the first time more than 100,000 containers in one calendar year. The milestone was reached in November.

Frans Calje, PD Ports' managing director, said in a company statement: "We are delighted that in these difficult economic times our efforts have clearly out-performed the market. We are really proud of what has been achieved at Teesport this year. We expect to reach this benchmark earlier each year as we move forward."
