The record performance
highlights the growing momentum of container handling at VOC Port and reflects
increasing activity at TICT. The terminal’s September throughput represents a
new monthly benchmark for its container operations. The handling of 33,771 TEUs during the
month was achieved through the combined efforts of the terminal team, shipping
lines, logistics operators, port authorities and other stakeholders involved in
the movement of containerised cargo.
The latest milestone comes as VOC Port continues to strengthen its
position as an important maritime gateway for southern India. Higher container
volumes can support trade connectivity for exporters and importers across Tamil
Nadu and neighbouring regions. TICT’s
performance also underlines the importance of efficient terminal infrastructure
and vessel-handling capabilities in supporting rising containerised trade.
Continued growth in throughput could further enhance the port’s role in
regional and international supply chains.
The terminal acknowledged the contribution of its employees and
stakeholders in achieving the September milestone, crediting their coordinated
efforts for the record monthly performance.
With container
traffic continuing to gain momentum, the latest achievement provides a positive
indicator for the development of container operations at VOC Port and its
contribution to India’s maritime trade.
