History of Nagoya Port

Nagoya is the capital of Aichi Prefecture in Japan. It is one of Japan's major industrial centers and largest port cities. It is located on the Noo coastal plain in central Honshu. The city area has grown to 510 square kilometers so far. Nagoya Port was built in 1907 on the north shore of Ise Bay facing the Pacific Ocean. Among the five major ports in Japan, Nagoya Port ranks first in total throughput and foreign trade throughput. In 2002, the throughput of Nagoya Port rose to 158 million tons, surpassing Tokyo, Kobe, and Yokohama, becoming Japan's largest port. China is the largest importer of container goods at Nagoya Port.

Nagoya Port is an important maritime gateway in Japan. The port has a water area of ??8,400 hectares and a land area of ??4,000 hectares. It has a total of 295 berths and a total length of berth lines of 34,295 meters. Among them, Jincheng, Feidao South, Feidao North, NCB and Guotian are container terminals, with a total of 13 dedicated container berths and 24 shore loading and unloading bridges. The Port of Nagoya continues to improve its port infrastructure and has dredged the port berths to a depth of 16 meters.

In order to build Nagoya Port into a high-speed and accurate modern logistics and distribution center, Nagoya Port has successfully introduced the Electronic Data Information Interchange (EDI) system, container loading and unloading, storage and transportation, customs clearance, storage yard, etc. at the port terminal. All are computerized and managed. Thanks to the support of Japan Customs' Sea Nippon Automated Cargo Clearance System electronic network, Nagoya Port's container import and export has achieved one-stop service. Various freight forwarding companies in Nagoya Port have united and jointly used the Nagoya United Container Terminal Electronic Network (NUTS), which has also greatly improved service quality and cargo handover efficiency. On November 10, 2007, Nagoya Port will celebrate its 100th anniversary. Since Nagoya Port is closely connected to transportation facilities such as the Central Japan International Airport, the Meishin Second Expressway, and the Rapid Rail Artery, the port has unique advantages in development.
