The designation of "Port of Yangpu (CN YPG)" as a port of registration is one of the unique free trade port policies endowed on the Yangpu Economic Development Zone by the Hainan Free Trade Port Construction Master Plan. In recent years, Yangpu has fully capitalized on its geographical advantages, standing as it does at the intersection of the New Western Land-Sea Corridor and the "21st Century Maritime Silk Road", to seize major historical opportunities brought about by the construction of the Hainan Free Trade Port (FTP). Utilizing the "Port of Yangpu (CN YPG)" and other shipping-related FTP policies, it has undertaken bold innovation and rolled out pilot programs, driving the rapid development of Yangpu's shipping and logistics industry and making outstanding contributions to Hainan Province's deepening and joint construction of trade exchanges with countries along the Belt and Road.


To date, a total of 42 international cargo ships have been registered under "Port of Yangpu (CN YPG)", with a total deadweight tonnage of 5.31 million tons, pushing Hainan Province to second place in China in terms of total international shipping tonnage. In the past three years, the port's shipping and logistics industry has begun to take shape. Nearly 600 new shipping-related companies have been established in Yangpu, covering shipping e-commerce platforms, financial leasing, ship management, crew management, maritime consulting services, and fuel supply, and more than 300 cargo ships, with a combined deadweight tonnage exceeding 12 million tons, are registered at Yangpu.


The Port of Yangpu has continued to strive to open up new domestic and international trade routes and is fast becoming a key international cargo transit port. In the past five years, 23 new domestic and international container routes have been established. At present, Yangpu Port maintains 44 routes in total, covering major domestic coastal and Southeast Asian ports, with routes connecting to the Pacific, Indian, and Atlantic oceans. Looking ahead, the port will create a full-coverage shipping network by further developing ocean-going intercontinental trunk lines, increasing the transport capacity of domestic coastal trunk lines, and increasing route density throughout the Beibu Gulf and other regions.



In this episode, HIMC presenter Henry and overseas communication officer Jay visit Yangpu Port to explore its container freight terminals and model enterprises and witness Yangpu’s speed and Chinese style.
