Port of Oakland on track to return to pre-Covid volumes

Port of Oakland’s total cargo volume shot up 10% year-to-date, January through November 2024, compared to the same period in 2023.

“We are optimistic that strong container volume will continue through the end of the year,” pointed out Port of Oakland Manager of Business Development and International Marketing Carolyn Almquist. “We expect to be on track to return to our pre-pandemic baseline cargo numbers. Our total inbound and outbound volume is up, and agricultural exports are boosting our outbound cargo business.”

Additionally, full exports jumped 8.5% with 66,619 TEUs transiting the Californian port facilities in the previous month. At the same time, empty imports fell by 14.8% to 12,028 TEUs, while empty exports rose by 14.7%  to 22,495 TEUs.
