Companies from all states and the Federal District have been assisting in data collection since March 16 to date. The isolation measures and other restrictions have been reducing the overall consumption of the country, directly affecting cargo transportation according to the collected data.

According to the latest data released, there has been a slight stabilization. Information released last Tuesday (12) shows a 40.47% drop in overall demand. The previous week, the numbers indicated 41.4%.

According to Francisco Pelucio, president of NTC & Logistics, “even though the survey shows improvement, the number is still very high for cargo transporters. Companies operate with high costs and this continues to be concerning. We are hoping and working for the total recovery to be felt soon.”

As long as restrictive measures are in effect, the entity will continue to assess the data on the impact on the cargo transportation sector.
