According to IAA PortNews analysts, after the shock caused by the fall of container throughput in 2022, container traffic via the Baltic ports began to recover gradually. Consistent recovery of cargo turnover occurs as a result of attracting new maritime container carriers to the North-West. Operators that withdrew from the market were replaced by companies from Russia, China and the Middle East. Thus, the container volume at the Great Port of St. Petersburg as of May 2022 recovered to 58% of the average for 2022.
