Situated at the innermost part of Ise Bay, which is located at the center
of the Japanese Archipelago on the east coast facing the Pacific Ocean,
the Port of Nagoya has steadily grown since it opened for international
trade on November 10, 1907. The Port is an integrated international port, handling all types of cargo
(general, container, bulk etc.) We are the largest port in Japan in terms
of total cargo throughput, which was 165 million tons in 2009, and counted
as one of the five major ports in Japan (Ports of Tokyo, Yokohama, Nagoya,
Osaka and Kobe.)
We are proud that our port tops all others in Japan in terms of total export
value in Japan, which amounted to 6.77 trillion yen in 2009. This is approximately 12.5% of the nation's total export value of about
54.2 trillion yen. |
