The Port of Riga is set to hold the top position in Latvia's maritime sector in terms of both total tonnage and container throughput in 2012 following another year of robust growth in 2011. Riga has a strong position to build on in 2012. Its 2011 throughput enabled the facility to retain its second place ranking amongst the Baltic states' container ports, after Lithuania's Klaipeda. Over the medium term we project further growth at the port of Riga. Ventspils, the country's second largest port in terms of the total throughput, has started its recovery, as it returned to positive growth in 2011. Headline Industry Data ???? 2012 port of Riga tonnage throughput forecast to grow 9%, over the medium term we project a 21% increase. ???? 2012 port of Riga container throughput forecast to grow 13%, over the medium term we project a 30% increase. ???? 2012 total trade growth forecast at 7.4%.
