Port of Long Beach smashes all-time record with October surge

Quick Summary:

The surge was driven in part by importers diverting cargo to Southern California to avoid risk of delays from a labor dispute that shut every major port on East and Gulf coast for three days in early October.

The port is the second-busiest in the US behind Los Angeles.

Businesses are poised to continue bringing in larger volumes of goods through the end of the year, which is normally a quieter time for the ports.
