About This Seaport
Roughly three million tonnes of dry bulk and one million tonnes of general cargo a year define the working capacity of Giresun, a Black Sea port on Turkey's eastern coast run by Çakıroğlu Giresun Liman İşletmesi A.Ş. The province grows some of the world's most sought-after hazelnuts, and the harbour is the natural export channel for that crop alongside agricultural and construction materials. Operations split between an inner and an outer basin, backed by about 29,800 m² of covered warehousing and 64,200 m² of customs-cleared open yard. This is not a container-line hub: the vessels calling here are overwhelmingly general-cargo ships, so containerised consignments are better routed elsewhere. Road access follows the D010 coastal highway, but the absence of a rail link puts heavy bulk onto trucks. Forwarders needing scheduled container services or deeper drafts typically turn to Samsun to the west or Trabzon, about 70 nautical miles east.
