The Port of Napier, already one of New Zealand’s busiest container ports is scheduled to receive over 40 ships over the next two weeks.
The Port is currently undergoing an expansion which will see increased birthing capacity.
The Port is a major contributor to the Hawke’s Bay economy and a significant employer. Hawke’s Bay is a major food and beverage producing region, much of which is exported through the Port.
The largest export markets for Hawke’s Bay include China, Australia, Japan and South Korea.
