The port business is a crucial segment of the Group’s strategic framework of “Four Growth Engines”, encompassing “Inland Port Networking, Logistics Parks, Air Cargo and Railway Freight Logistics Infrastructure”. In recent years, through its “Port Connection Action” strategy, the Group has actively expanded the footprint of its port business, establishing a port industry network centered on its supply chain service platform as the asset-light operating platform, with Nanjing Xiba Port, Jiangsu Jingjiang Port, Henan Shenqiu Port, Foshan Fuwan Port, Jiangsu Lvsi Port and Jiangxi Fengcheng Port serving as cargo collection and distribution nodes. This has created an integrated operational network of “One Asset-light Company + Six Ports”.

As at 30 June 2026, the Group had 22 operational berths, managing a shoreline of more than 3,300 meters, with a designed annual throughput exceeding 100 million tonnes.

Port Supply Chain Business

The port supply chain business serves as an important backbone of the Group’s port business in implementing its “Port Connection Action” strategy. By effectively bringing together information, logistics and commerce flows, the business builds a strong base of high-quality upstream and downstream customers for the Group’s asset-heavy port projects, creating resource synergies and complementary strengths. It has facilitated the transformation and upgrading of these ports from stand-alone cargo-handling and transshipment terminals into large-scale integrated hub ports and service platforms. The business also supports the Group in establishing an end-to-end logistics service system and fostering coordinated development between its asset-light and asset-heavy operations, thereby strengthening the overall competitiveness of the port business.
