Hapag-Lloyd has turned in significantly improved financial results despite the coronavirus pandemic. The company saw its net result rise 155% to $1.1bn for the 2020 financial year, up from $418m in 2019, according to its annual report published today. The main drivers were cost savings of more than $500m, as well as slightly improved freight rates and lower bunker prices, the company said. Revenue increased by roughly 3% to $14.6bn. This was mainly due to a 4% increase in the average freight rate to 1,115 per teu.
