About Textainer Group Holdings Limited
Textainer has operated since 1979 and is the world`s largest lessor of
intermodal containers based on fleet size. We lease containers to more than 300
shipping lines and other lessees. We principally lease dry freight containers,
which are by far the most common of the three principal types of intermodal
containers. We have also been one of the largest purchasers of new containers
among container lessors over the last 12 years. We believe we are also one of
the two largest sellers of used containers among container lessors for the last
five years."
