In 2023, the volume of international transport for loaded and empty containers and swap bodies in Italy stood as the baseline measurement for analyzing forecasted trends. Moving forward into 2024, an expected increase to 1.8316 million TEUs marks the beginning of a steady upward trajectory. By 2028, this is projected to reach 1.9897 million TEUs. This data indicates a consistent year-on-year growth, with percentage increases suggesting a gradual but persistent expansion in international transport activities. Over this forecasted five-year period, the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) demonstrates a moderate annual increase in international transport volumes.

Future trends to watch for include:

Impact of sustainability and environmental regulations on container transport operations.
Technological advancements in supply chain management optimizing container movements.
Potential economic shifts within the European Union affecting trade volumes.
