In the third and final part of Maersk’s 2015 Trade Report video series, Matthew Conroy, Trade Manager at Maersk Line Southern Africa, discusses the performance for Southern African container trade for the year.
Mr Convoy conveys a mixed result for 2015 with 7% growth seen in H1, which was fuelled by outbound commodities and inbound consumer goods, including retail and electronics.
In contrast, H2, 2015 growth was -1%, with commodities falling sharply, presumably as a result of lower commodity prices.
