PANAMA CITY, Panama, October 10, 2012 –<\/strong>\u00a0The Panama Canal set a mark in its history as it reached a new tonnage record of 333.7 million Panama Canal tons (PC\/UMS) during fiscal year 2012 which concluded on September 30. This achievement highlights the value of Panama and its significance as a link in the chain of global trade.<\/p>\n

“This milestone attests to the reliable and continuous service offered by the Canal, which is supported by a workforce of 10,000 men and women. The Panama Canal works tirelessly to provide its customers with first-rate service, including new products and services in response to their evolving shipping and maritime needs,” said Panama Canal Authority Administrator\/CEO Jorge Luis Quijano.<\/p>\n

Preliminary figures showed that the Panama Canal closed fiscal year 2012 with 333.7 million Panama Canal tons (PC\/UMS). This figure represents an increase of 11.6 million Panama Canal tons or 3.6% compared to the 322.1 million tons registered last year, and also surpasses the previous 2007 record of 312.9 million tons. (Under PC\/UMS, a mathematical formula is applied to the vessel\u00b4s total volume or cargo carrying capacity).<\/p>\n
