Mumbai Port Authority

Mumbai Port has long been the principal gateway to India and has played a pivotal role in the development of the national economy, trade & commerce and prosperity of Mumbai city in particular. The port has achieved this position through continuous endeavor to serve the changing needs of maritime trade. Though traditionally designed to handle general cargo, over the years, the port has adapted to changing shipping trends and cargo packaging from break bulk to unitization/ palletization and containerization. Besides, it has also developed specialised berths for handling POL and chemicals. For decades, Mumbai Port was India’s premier port.
