The average China Containerized Freight Index (CCFI) stood at 880.53, up 1.8 percent from a week earlier, according to the exchange.
The sub-reading for the South America service led the increase with a week-on-week growth of 6.3 percent, followed by that for the Australia/New Zealand service, which rose 4.9 percent from the previous week.
