About This Seaport
Tri Marine, SolTuna and the Solomon Islands Ports Authority have turned Noro into the Pacific's reference point for tuna transhipment rather than a general cargo gateway. Sitting in the country's Western Province, it ranks as one of just two international ports in the Solomon Islands. SolTuna processes roughly 25,000 to 30,000 tonnes of skipjack and yellowfin each year, moving the product to Europe and across the Pacific in pre-cooled reefer containers. Two Maersk star loaders let purse seiners load catch straight into refrigerated boxes, while a digital catch-documentation scheme launched in 2021 made Noro the first "e-port" in the region. Container and breakbulk volumes outside the fishing sector remain limited, so general Solomon Islands trade is largely routed through Honiara. Shippers handling temperature-controlled seafood will find purpose-built reefer capacity here, provided customs clearance and berth slots are arranged in advance.
