New investment in the Port of Oakland by TraPac could increase its capacity by 10%. Panjiva data shows that its import handling in September grew 3%, lagging regional peer Seattle’s 8%. Most of the growth the port has experienced in the past year has come from higher trade with Japan and Canada. Continued growth from Canada is far from assured – it has been the result of lumber regulations that are currently being renegotiated.
