    CONTAINER trade through the Port of Brisbane saw a slowdown in January with the port handling a total of 114,631 TEU, a decrease of 13 per cent on January 2022.

    However there was nearly no change in total container trade through the port if we look at the numbers for the rolling 12 months through January 2023. The port handled 1.548 million TEU in the period, just 156 TEU less than the same period last a year prior, reports Australia's Daily Cargo News.

    In January, both imports and exports fell. Exports were 51,931 TEU in January this year, a decrease of 15 per cent on January 2022. This was driven in large part by a decrease in empty container exports. In January the port exported 32,985 TEU of empties, 7273 TEU less than the same month last year.

    Containerized imports into the Port of Brisbane in January were 55,059 TEU, a decrease of 15 per cent on the same month last year.

    The commodity category that saw the biggest decrease over the period was "import other", which declined by 4,297 TEU from January 2022 to 27,144 TEU. Electrical equipment saw a 44 per cent drop to 3,928 TEU in January 2023.
