JNPT

Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust, commonly known as JNPT, is the largest container port in India. Located in Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra, it handles a significant portion of the country's maritime trade. Established on May 26, 1989, JNPT was conceived to decongest the Mumbai port and to provide a modern, efficient gateway for international trade. It is a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model port, with various private operators managing its container terminals.

The port has undergone several phases of expansion and modernization to enhance its capacity and efficiency. It boasts state-of-the-art infrastructure, including advanced cargo handling equipment, deep-water berths, and extensive storage areas. JNPT is strategically connected to the hinterland through a robust network of road and rail links, facilitating smooth movement of cargo. Its operations are crucial for industries across Western India and beyond, supporting the import and export of a wide range of goods. The port also plays a vital role in the economic development of the region and contributes significantly to India's foreign trade. JNPT is continuously working on improving its services and environmental sustainability.
