"Triton's record performance in the first quarter of 2022 - commented the CEO of the company, Brian Sondey - represent a great start to what we we look forward to another exceptional year." Sondey has specified that the results of the beginning of this year were generated both by the high performance in the rental segment of the containers both in that of the sale of containers. Specifying that on April 29 Triton had in progress investments worth a total of 428 million dollars for the purchase of new containers that will be taken over by at the end of this year, Sondey stressed that "the Market conditions continue to be positive. The volumes of the trafficking - he specified - continue to be supported by a considerable consumption of goods, especially in the United States, and the container demand is further supported by persistent logistical bottlenecks that are slowing down recovery times for the delivery of the containers'.
As for container prices, Sondey explained that "they are decreased from the maximum level reached last year, but remain at a historically very high level, with factories that quote a 20-foot container for dry cargo just below the 3,000 dollars".
