▲The world's largest single container terminal-Yantian Port
Yantian Port is one of the busiest ports in the world. As one of the largest single-handle container terminals in the world, Yantian Port is responsible for more than 1/3 of Guangdong's foreign trade import and export, and 1/4 of the country's trade with the United States. The container throughput of Yantian Port in Shenzhen last year was nearly 50% higher than that of Los Angeles, the busiest container port in the United States.
Therefore, the suspension of Yantian Port caused by the epidemic has had a great impact on the global shipping and logistics industry. The news revealed by the Shenzhen government press conference today is also the industry's long-awaited!
We look forward to the resurrection of Yantian Port in Shenzhen as soon as possible. This is critical not only to the recovery of the global shipping and logistics industry in southern China.
