COSCO Shipping Ports (CSP) delivered a strong throughput in the first half of this year, due to enhanced synergies with Ocean Alliance.
As explained, driven by sustained economic growth, increase in trade volume and increased calls from the Ocean Alliance, fueled by its acquisitions and least impact by the Sino-US trade frictions, the group delivered the strong results.
