Jakarta, April 17, 2025 – IPC Terminal Petikemas/IPC TPK, a subsidiary of Pelindo Terminal Petikemas, recorded an 18.4% increase in operational performance in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024. This achievement reflects the company’s success in improving productivity, operational efficiency, and terminal service quality amid an increasingly competitive logistics industry.
This growth is reflected in several key performance indicators, such as container volume handled, loading and unloading productivity, and increased business revenue. The main drivers of this achievement include the implementation of digital service enhancements, terminal facility optimization, and collaboration with business partners.
“IPC TPK’s container throughput in Q1 2025 reached 843,188 TEUs, an increase of 18.4% compared to the same period last year at 712,068 TEUs. This achievement is the result of IPC TPK’s consistent efforts in maintaining operational performance and customer service, contributing to the smooth flow of national logistics,” said Pramestie Wulandary, Corporate Secretary of IPC TPK.
Meanwhile, in March 2025 alone, IPC TPK recorded a container flow of 290,923 TEUs, an increase of 15.36% compared to the same period the previous year, which stood at 252,182 TEUs. This rise was driven by a surge in goods flow during the month of Ramadan and the arrival of several ad-hoc vessels at Tanjung Priok, as well as increases in certain commodities (such as soap, wheat flour, and cement) in the Palembang area, livestock feed in Teluk Bayur, and domestic container volumes in Pontianak.
This increase is also supported by the positive trend in Indonesia’s trade balance. According to the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia, the trade balance posted a surplus in February 2025, reaching USD 3.12 billion. This ongoing trade surplus trend reflects the increasing competitiveness of Indonesia’s economy, in line with government policies aimed at maintaining economic stability while promoting investment and national exports.
“We believe that sustainable growth must be built through innovation, collaboration, and a commitment to delivering added value to all stakeholders,” Pramestie added.
With this strong start to the year, IPC TPK is optimistic about maintaining a positive growth trend through the end of 2025. Several strategic initiatives are also being prepared, including service expansion, human resource capacity development, improvements in vessel berthing time efficiency, enhanced loading and unloading equipment productivity, and strategic collaborations with shipping lines and logistics partners to support container volume growth and terminal infrastructure development.
