The spread of the deadly virus known as COVID-19 shut down cities and factories in China for weeks, disrupting ocean and air shipments and roiling global supply chains. China is a vital link in the shipping sector, transporting everything from food to mobile phones and apparel to auto parts. Total February volumes were 544,037 TEUs at the Port of Los Angeles. Imports tumbled 22.5% and exports fell 5.7% for the month.
The Port of Long Beach handled 538,428 TEUs last month. Imports slid 17.9%, while exports, which account for a much smaller share of port traffic, were up 19.3%.
