Posted: Wednesday, November 17, 2021 at 7:45 PM CST

Hong Kong, China -- (SBWire) -- 11/17/2021 --Disruption to the global supply chain and a worldwide shortage of containers have caused significant issues for the logistics industry in Hong Kong over the past year. Nevertheless, the local industry has remained focused on survival, and in the first nine months of 2021, the cumulative container throughput at the Hong Kong port edged up to 13.3 million TEUs (20-foot equivalent unit). In the same time period, throughput at Hong Kong airport grew by more than 13%. Both of these statistics show that despite the challenges triggered by the pandemic and surrounding events, those in logistics and supply chain jobs - and the broader industry - have a lot to get excited about as we look ahead to 2022. Not least because of the investment being made in the logistics industry in Hong Kong, including a HK$300 million funding scheme that will ensure logistics businesses are taking advantage of everything that technology has to offer.
