Despite Lower Chinese Iron Ore Imports Sino-Global Turns Profit

China mainland shipping agency provider Sino-Global announce increased revenue in fiscal year 2012 results. Sino-Global Shipping America, Ltd. a leading, non-state-owned provider of shipping agency services operating primarily in China, report that Fiscal 2012 was a difficult year for the Company as the economic slowdown in China had a significant impact on the volume of iron ore imported into China and, consequently, on the Company's results. By aggressive marketing activities that resulted in new customers that load iron ore in overseas ports, Sino-Global was able to manage a small increase in revenues. The number of ships served increased from 421 in fiscal 2011 to 477 in fiscal 2012.
