In the first three quarters of 2025, despite disruptions from U.S. tariffs and heightened geopolitical tensions, global merchandise trade growth remained resilient. According to a September 2025 forecast by Clarkson, a leading industry analysis firm, global container trade volume in 2025 is expected to increase by 3.0% year-on-year—higher than the initial expectations set at the beginning of the year. Meanwhile, factors such as the Red Sea rerouting, port congestion, and stricter environmental regulations for shipping have dampened container shipping efficiency, yet overall demand for containers has stayed steady. During the reporting period, the Group’s cumulative sales of dry cargo containers reached 1.8018 million TEU (same period last year: 2.4863 million TEU), remaining at a solid level. Meanwhile, driven by South American fruit exports, demand for refrigerated containers saw a significant surge, with cumulative sales reaching 153,500 TEU (same period last year: 93,400 TEU), representing a year-on-year increase of 64.35%.
Looking back from the vantage point of the third quarter of 2025, despite the ever-changing global trade landscape, CIMC's container business continues to demonstrate remarkable resilience and unwavering strategic focus. We deeply recognize that the volatility and challenges in the external environment are accelerating the industry’s transition toward greater efficiency and structural optimization. Facing the future, CIMC Containers will firmly embrace innovation-driven development, closely aligning with customer needs and the green shipping trend, while continuously optimizing its product portfolio and supply chain strategy. We are confident that, in an uncertain environment, we can seize steady growth opportunities and contribute CIMC's strength to the smooth and sustainable development of global trade. Together with our partners, we will navigate steadily toward a promising future.
