Cargo volume at the Port of LA in August continues to be robust.

In August, the Port of Los Angeles maintained strong cargo volume, processing 958,355 TEUs, similar to the previous year. Executive Director Gene Seroka noted that the port moved nearly 2 million containers in July and August, marking the best two-month performance for any port in the Western Hemisphere. However, he anticipates a decrease in container volumes for the remainder of 2025 due to economic factors and early holiday imports. Year-to-date, the port has handled 6,934,004 TEUs, reflecting a 4.5% increase compared to the same period in 2024.
