en.Wedoany.com Reported - Yantai Port, under Shandong Port Group in China, recently set a new record for truck exports to Africa in a single voyage, loading 617 trucks of various types onto a cargo vessel operating on the China-Africa route. The vehicles covered multiple models, and from port reception, inspection and verification, to hoisting, loading, and smooth departure, staff worked continuously for approximately 58 hours, completing a loading volume of 40,000 cubic meters and ensuring the vessel's rapid turnaround.

Leveraging over 20 breakbulk routes connecting China and Africa, Yantai Port achieved a cargo throughput of 2.85 million tons in the first four months of this year, a year-on-year increase of 46.5%. The port has integrated over 200 types of bulk commodities and consumer goods from more than 20 provinces, regions, and municipalities including Hebei, Tianjin, and Inner Mongolia, such as construction machinery and steel products, for continuous export to Africa. Currently, Yantai Port handles over 30 two-way vessel voyages per month, making it one of the world's largest bauxite import ports and a major hub port for China-Africa trade links.

The export of 617 trucks this time broke Yantai Port's single-vessel truck shipment record, reflecting the port's loading and unloading efficiency and the strong demand for Chinese-manufactured equipment exports to Africa. By optimizing operational processes and scheduling, Yantai Port ensured that large batches of roll-on/roll-off cargo were dispatched to the African market quickly and safely.
