Overview

Guangzhou is south China's comprehensive hub port and the point where Pearl River Delta inland shipping meets ocean services.

Export role and throughput

Guangzhou Port Group expected 25.182 million TEU in 2024, up 5.3%, with the Nansha area alone passing 20 million TEU and entering the global top ten. Cargo throughput exceeded 670 million tonnes across both domestic and foreign trade.

Infrastructure and berths

Nansha is the core deep-water container area, supported by Xinsha and Huangpu. Channels accept ultra-large container ships, and the port has dedicated ro-ro, petrochemical, grain and ore berths. Nansha is a combined rail, road and waterway intermodal hub.

Location and inland connectivity

Serves the western Pearl River Delta, the Greater Bay Area and inland south China through expressways, high-speed rail and the inland waterway network, functioning as the Bay Area's cargo consolidation centre.

Surrounding industry clusters

Supports Pearl River Delta automotive (vehicle assembly and parts), electronics, appliances, textiles, machinery and health industries, with vehicle trade and advanced manufacturing clustered at Nansha.

What this means for WPC buyers

The most common port for Foshan and Guangzhou WPC factories. Nansha's short inland haul from Foshan's production base is the main reason it beats Shenzhen for many suppliers despite Shenzhen's higher ranking.
