In August 2022, Port of Tanjung Pelepas (PTP), a joint venture between Malaysian-based MMC Group and Netherlands-based APM terminals hit a historic milestone by becoming the first container terminal in Malaysia to surpass 1 million TEUs a month. The milestone was recorded on 31st July 2022 at approximately 11.45 pm during the loading process at the MTT CEBU vessel, with the final monthly throughput volume registered at 1,001,819 TEU million TEUs.
PTP has also recently partnered with United Nations Global Compact Network (UNGC) to further embed sustainability practices in all areas of PTP’s business and operation. Earlier this year, PTP also became the first container terminal in Malaysia to surpass 11 million TEUs throughput volume in a year, further strengthening PTP’s position as one of the top 15 global ports.
