PSA International Pte Ltd handled 85.2M TEU in 2019, of which PSA Singapore contributed 36.9M TEU (+1.6%) and overseas interests 48.3M TEU (+ 8.1%)

Tan Chong Meng, Group CEO of PSA, said: “2019 was a year where the PSA Group expanded its horizons against a backdrop of trade wars, climate action and varying technological impacts on business and society.

"By welcoming terminals such as DCT Gdansk, together with PSA Halifax and Penn Terminals into our fold, we have broadened our reach and ability to offer greater connectivity to new economies in the Baltics and North America. Beyond our traditional port domain, we also redoubled our efforts to develop more transport options for cargo owners and movers through our new PSA Cargo Solutions arm.

"We also continued to develop CALISTA as a value-adding and interoperable platform for stakeholders in the global supply chain with Global eTrade Services (GeTS).

“Thanks to the efforts of the global PSA team and strong support from our customers and partners, PSA Group has achieved good volume growth for 2019. My deepest appreciation goes out to our unions, staff and management for their sterling teamwork and steadfast contributions throughout the year.

“As we begin a new decade in 2020, PSA will continue to build on our global network of ports while harnessing technologies to improve our productivity to serve our customers better. Our vision is to empower supply chain stakeholders with the ability to move their goods with greater intelligence and agility through the Internet of Logistics, and to work alongside our partners to enable greater sustainability for the whole supply chain.”
