After taking a hit in 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic, both global GDP and container shipping volume are projected to grow in 2021 and 2022. While global GDP contracted by some 3.3 percent in 2020 compared with the previous year, it is expected to grow by six percent in 2021. Similarly, while the volume of containers shipped worldwide in 2020 shrank by 0.8 percent compared with 2019, it is projected to grow by 5.7 percent in 2021.
