About This Seaport
Western Japan's car exports need a dependable outlet, and Hiroshima — the Chugoku region's leading port — provides it, serving the local automotive industry centred on Mazda. Set on the Ota River delta along the Seto Inland Sea, it moves roughly 12 million tonnes and about 210,000 TEU each year across several districts, including the Ujina foreign trade area plus Itsukaichi, Hatsukaichi, Kaita, Dejima and Motoujina. The Ujina International Container Terminal offers a 330-metre quay at 14 metres depth, three gantry cranes, storage for some 8,000 TEU and 76 reefer plugs for temperature-controlled loads; CMA CGM lists it as a called terminal (JPHIJ). Imports centre on LNG, timber, wheat and barley, while vehicles and machinery dominate exports. The international ferry terminal links Hiroshima with Busan and Ulsan in South Korea and with ports in China and Taiwan, and transshipment to other Japanese ports is a recognised growth trade. Customs clearance runs through Japan Customs at the Ujina foreign trade area. Forwarders will find Hiroshima well suited to container, reefer and breakbulk flows in western Japan, with Kobe and Osaka — roughly three hours away by road or rail — the nearest options for global mainline services.
