The end of Mercedes-Benz passenger-car production at the adjacent Valmet Automotive plant in late 2025 marks a turning point for Uusikaupunki (FI UKI), a specialised small port on Finland's south-west coast. Valmet has signed a teaming agreement with Sisu Auto to produce armoured military vehicles at the factory, pointing the port's ro-ro capabilities towards defence logistics. Yara continues to operate a dedicated factory port for bulk fertiliser and liquid bulk. The public Hepokari area handles breakbulk, containers, timber and unitised cargo; typical imports include salt, potash, sulphur, ammonia and LPG, with annual throughput of roughly 490 vessel calls, 1.49 million tonnes and around 1,450 TEU. Road and rail links connect the port to Turku and south-west Finland. Forwarders needing frequent container services typically route via Rauma or Naantali.
