“Being the 8th biggest port in the world today, Qingdao port has been growing with an astonishing speed in the recent years,” said Tim Smith, ceo of Maersk Line North Asia.
Smith attributed the port's rapid growth to the advanced infrastructure, swift port productivity and reliable customer service.
Maersk Line, the world's largest container line, currently has 11 global services calling at Qingdao port. The Chinese port handled box throughput of 10.87m teu in the first three quarters of this year.
