LONG BEACH, Calif.—Cargo volumes at the Port of Long Beach—located adjacent to the Port of Los Angeles and part of the same port complex—fell 16.4 percent in June compared to the same month last year, port officials said July 16, though a pause on new tariffs could fuel a rebound in the coming weeks.
Dockworkers and terminal operators processed 704,403 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) in June, with imports down 16.9 percent to 348,681 TEUs, exports down 10.9 percent to 87,627 TEUs, and empty containers falling 17.4 percent to 268,095 TEUs.
