Viedo About Ningbo Zhoushan Port Achieved 1 Billion Tons in Annual Cargo Throughput
On December 27, at berth No.6 of Ningbo Zhoushan Port Container Terminal, a red container is firmly lifted to "Mary Maersk", which marks the Ningbo Zhoushan Port to become the world's first annual cargo throughput over "1 billion tons", ranking first in the world for 9 years. This is a milestone for Ningbo Zhoushan Port to move from a big port to strong port.
Ningbo Zhoushan Port, located in the "Silk Road Economic Belt" and "21st Century Maritime Silk Road" intersection, neighboring the world's busiest Pacific main channel in the east and China's most dynamic Yangtze River Delta economic zone in the west , radiating China’s coastline in the north and south.
It is a port with the largest cargo throughput in the world, port with the fastest development of container transport business in the world, port with the most deep water berths in China and port with the highest frequency of extra-large ships in China.
What is the concept of "1 billion tons"? It is equivalent to the sum of the weight of 100,000 Eiffel Tower. If you connect the Eiffel Tower end to end, it will circle around three quarters of the earth.
Mao Jianhong, Chairman of Ningbo Zhoushan Port said, "This is a milestone for Ningbo Zhoushan Port from big port to strong port and a new achievement in the integration of Zhejiang Ocean and Port."
Ningbo Zhoushan Port will continue to improve the system of multimodal transport to enhance its shipping service capabilities and strive to achieve the goal of handling 1.25 billion tons of annual cargo throughput and 30 million TEU of container throughput by 2022.
