Last month, container traffic in the port of Algeciras
amounted to 380 thousand TEUs, with a decrease of -11.4%
on July 2025 which was determined by both the reduction in
of the preponderant share of traffic, that made up of
containers being transhipped on international routes that amounted to
to 290 thousand TEUs (-11.6%), and by the drop in transhipment traffic
national level, which stood at 37 thousand TEUs (-7.9%), and of containers in
import and export, respectively
27 thousand TEUs (-11.5%) and 26 thousand TEUs (-13.2%). The total weight of the
