About This Seaport
With dozens of berths and several kilometres of quay wall, Rostov-on-Don (UN/LOCODE RU RND) is a major river-sea port on the Don, some 40 km upstream of the Sea of Azov. Its cargo base is dry bulk and agribulk — grain from the surrounding steppe, plus steel, coal and fertilisers — loaded onto shallow-draft river-sea vessels typically of 3,000–5,000 DWT. Shipments reach Mediterranean, Turkish, Middle Eastern and North African markets via the Azov and Black Seas, while the Volga-Don Canal links the port to the Caspian. Shallow fairway depths cap vessel size, so larger parcels are usually topped off at Azov anchorages or deepwater ports such as Novorossiysk. Since 2022, Western sanctions have weighed on Russian foreign trade and many Western carriers have withdrawn, though agricultural exports continue via alternative routes. For forwarders, Rostov is primarily a bulk and agri port rather than a container hub; for boxes, Novorossiysk is more relevant.
