JNPT has again crossed a new milestone in cargo handling, registering a throughput of approximately 5.11 million TEUs in calendar year 2019. It thus improved upon the 5.05 million TEUs achieved in 2018.
Among its terminals, APM Terminals Mumbai (GTI) again led from the front, handling an impressive 2 million TEUs during the year. It was followed by DP World NSIGT with 0.99 million TEUs and PSA BMCT’s 0.82 million TEUs.
The Port Trust’s own JNPCT handled 0.77 million TEUs, while the throughput of DP World NSICT was 0.52 million TEUs.
One can therefore look forward to the port beating last fiscal’s 5.10 million TEUs in 2019-20. Frequently setting new records is something that the facility has excelled in over the years, enabled by supportive government policies, forward-looking managements, dedicated employees, and the continuous and growing patronage of its users.
