How this measure is built

Definition
The percentage change in containerized import volume compared with the same period a year earlier.
Measure
One slice of Container cargo volume ( form: growth, origin: imported ) . Total volume of containerized cargo handled at ports, measured in twenty-foot equivalent units. Region and period are columns on every record, not slices.
Limitations
1 figure is a projection, drawn dashed and labelled in the table. Values are shown as published; StatOrigin does not revise, fill gaps or convert currencies.
Verification
Each value, unit, period and place was checked against its source evidence before publication. See the methodology and the corrections process.
