Some terminals at the port has resumed operations, but it is still too early to predict the recovery time of vessel operations since many indispensable facilities have been damaged.
Scan Global Logistics continues to grow. Revenues in 2014 were up 17% over 2013 and Operating Profits (EBITDA) increased by more than 50%. For the coming years the company plans to strengthen its network further by opening up for acquisitions in key markets.
We still suggest to our customers to do factory loading (export) instead of terminal loading during these two weeks, since the port terminal is not yet fully operational.
