Shenzhen Port Group's Container Throughput Grows 11% YoY

On February 5, reporters learned from Shenzhen Port Group that the group's container throughput increased by 11% year-on-year, setting a record for the highest single-month data in the same period in history. The group's three major port areas are leveraging their strengths and advancing on multiple fronts. Among them, Yantian Port Area achieved a container throughput of 1.4671 million TEUs in January, a year-on-year increase of 10%; Dachan Bay Port Area reached a container throughput of 243,000 TEUs, a year-on-year increase of 18%; Shenzhen Port Group's port intermodal company, the first barge company under Shenzhen State-owned Assets, completed a throughput of 13,000 TEUs in the first month of 2026, continuously expanding new shipping businesses and further enhancing the competitiveness of the home port.

It is reported that since the beginning of the year, Shenzhen Port Group's various port areas have implemented a series of effective measures in improving operational efficiency, responding to market demand, upgrading route services, expanding specialized businesses, and optimizing the operational system.

Yantian Port Area has proactively optimized yard layout and empty container dispatch strategies, with quay cranes and gantry cranes operating at full capacity. All entrance channels in AB zones have been opened, significantly improving berth production efficiency by over 20% year-on-year. The port area's three chassis-based battery swap stations are operating in a coordinated manner on a large scale, effectively ensuring the continuous and efficient operation of 256 electric trailers, and significantly enhancing container transportation turnover efficiency within the port area.

Dachan Bay Port Area is actively expanding into emerging markets such as Southeast Asia, deepening collaborative efforts with shipping companies and carriers, driving a significant increase in export cargo volume. Leveraging the advantage of green ship fuel refueling, the port has established a "green channel" for imported fruits. Combined with dynamic optimization of yard resource allocation and the implementation of measures such as "no restrictions on trailer entry," the port area's operational volume has risen significantly.

Xiaomo Port Area is fully utilizing its "front port, rear factory" locational and linkage advantages to efficiently serve the export of domestic new energy vehicles. In early February, a new roll-on/roll-off shipping route will be added, strongly supporting the "Guangdong Goods Go Global" spring campaign and helping Chinese manufacturing reach larger overseas trade markets.
