Hapag-Lloyd reports rise in revenue

Hapag-Lloyd has reported a 23% year-on-year rise in its revenue in the first nine months of 2018.

The German carrier’s revenue went up from US$8bn in the months from January to September last year to US$10bn in the same period this year.

The increase was primarily due to a 27% rise in transport volume from 7m teu in the first nine months of 2017 to 8.9m teu in the same period of 2018.
