BEIJING, April 14 (Xinhua) -- China's container transport for export purposes increased for the week ending Friday, according to the Shanghai Shipping Exchange.

The average China Containerized Freight Index (CCFI) stood at 799.79, up 0.3 percent from a week earlier, the exchange said.

The sub-index for South America service saw the strongest rally of 6 percent week on week, while that for the Europe service declined 3.3 percent.
