Carmakers including Toyota, Honda and Suzuki drive the traffic at JP MKW, the Port of Mikawa in Aichi Prefecture and Japan's second-largest port for vehicle exports. Finished cars move out through the Tahara and Toyohashi districts — a key base for shipments to North America — while foreign vehicles and sawn timber arrive inbound. Dedicated RoRo ramps and extensive vehicle storage yards define the facility, alongside the handling of automotive parts. Its location in the industrial belt around Toyota's Tahara plant ties the port directly to regional car production. Large-scale container traffic, by contrast, is not part of Mikawa's role. For boxed cargo in the Aichi region, shippers rely on neighbouring Nagoya, Japan's busiest port by throughput.
