"This negative development is mainly due to the declining demand for transport in Europe," the Swiss combined rail transport company said in a press release.
As such, the Swedish seaport noted a new all-time high for containers going over its quays (16k more boxes than the port's previous record result from 2012).
The Finnish seaports took care of 14.12 million tonnes in international traffic last year (-13.2% year-on-year), plus 196.4kt in cabotage (-73.2% yoy).
