Fuzhou Port's foreign trade volume surpassed 100 million metric tons in 2025 for the first time, an 8.8 percent year-on-year increase, marking a historic milestone for the Fujian province hub as it scales up its role in global shipping.
The feat is the fruit of years of sustained infrastructure investment, network expansion, and closer integration between port operations and local industrial supply chains. Total cargo throughput reached 345 million tons in 2025, up 3.1 percent from the previous year, while container throughput rose by 0.9 percent to 3.85 million twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs).
Infrastructure investment totaled 4.5 billion yuan ($644.45 million) last year, accounting for nearly half of the total spending coastal ports in Fujian. The completion of a 200,000-ton-class vessel terminal in the Jiangyin Port Area of Fuzhou Port has created a cluster capable of handling more than 3 million TEUs annually.
Logistics efficiency also improved with the launch of Fujian's first integrated rail–sea dispatch center at Jiangyin Port Area, enabling streamlined two-way connections between the quay and the railhead. It doubled transfer efficiency and trimmed 30 yuan off the operating cost of every container.
Such logistical prowess has attracted leading enterprises such as Wanhua Chemical Group, Shenyuan New Materials, and CATL, transforming the port into a hub for high-tech industrial clusters.
