About This Seaport
Once a trading harbour, Wonsan shifted decades ago toward fishing and naval use, yet it remains the largest commercial port on North Korea's east coast inside the sheltered Yonghung Bay. Its piers handle general and bulk cargo, with exports such as graphite, gold and cattle and imports of rice, wheat flour, salt and mineral oils, for a combined annual capacity near 1.9 million tonnes. Unlike open international gateways, Wonsan's foreign trade is effectively confined to China and Russia, and container-line or routine Western cargo is not confirmed given sanctions. Cargo-pier depths of roughly 5 to 6.7 metres limit it to smaller vessels. Road and rail tie the port to Pyongyang and the eastern interior. Forwarders with legitimate regional business will find Hungnam (Hamhung) or the Rason free-trade zone more workable.
