Ten major piers, advanced gantry cranes and one of the lowest container dwell times on record define Yokohama Ko, a leading gateway on Tokyo Bay. The port moved roughly 3.08 million TEU in 2024 and ranks among the world's most efficient box hubs in the World Bank's performance index, averaging about 1.1 minutes per container move. Beyond full containers, its quays handle automotive components, machinery, chemicals and breakbulk, backed by extensive warehousing and distribution space. Reefer plugs and dangerous-goods handling support Japan's export-driven trade, while customs clearance follows established Japan Customs import and export procedures. Dense expressway and rail links connect the terminals to the Greater Tokyo market, one of Asia's wealthiest consumption regions. Major repair facilities and a large dry dock serve vessel maintenance on site. Shippers seeking added capacity or a fallback can route through neighbouring Tokyo (JP TYO) or Kawasaki on the same bay.
