Onahama Port is linked to the world.
With the establishment of a foreign trade container service,
its convenience has been greatly enhanced.
Aiming to become a 21st century international distribution base,
a foreign route has been established
in September 1998, so that by transferring ships at a foreign
port, import-export trade can be conducted between Onahama Port
and the rest of the world using containers.
Available routes at present are as follows.
Foreign route:
Japan-Korea route linking Onahama
Port and Pusan Port, Korea; Coastal feeder service connecting
Onahama Port to the world via Tokyo
Domestic route:
Route linking Kitakyushu (Moji
Port) and Niihama Port
By using Onahama Port, cargo
owners can improve their distribution systems and reduce distribution
costs.
Onahama Port aims to open new routes in the future, and is steadily
making preparations to that effect.
