Turning the tide: NOL carries more cargo

And NOL has higher volumes on intra-Asia and Asia-Europe routes to thank.

A Reuters report said NOL “carried 7 percent more cargo in the four weeks to June 3 from a year ago.”

NOL is said to have carried 228,000 forty-foot equivalent units during the four-week period, up from 212,600 FEUs a year ago.

Also in a statement NOL confirmed it has signed contracts with Korea's Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co. and Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries Co., Ltd to build 12 new container vessels.

The company had also agreed to charter five of the newly ordered 14,000-TEU container vessels to alliance partner, Mitsui O.S.K. Lines when they are delivered in 2013 and 2014.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
