Port of Los Angeles executive director Gene Seroka announced the February data during a virtual media briefing, where he was joined by Dee Dee Meyers, Director of the California Governor’s Office of Budget and Economic Development (GO-Biz). Myers outlined Gov. Gavin Newsom’s planned record investment of $2.3 billion for California ports in the upcoming budget.

Empty containers climbed to 338,251 TEUs, a jump of 18.6% compared to last year due to the continued heavy demand in Asia.
Two months into 2022, overall cargo volume has reached 1,723,360 TEUs, a 5.4% increase compared to 2021.
