Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA) is a leading container port in India, celebrated its 34th Anniversary on 26th May. Its phenomenal success is crowned by the World Bank report which declared JNPort as one of the fastest port terminals globally for handling shipments of boxes.
JNPA is renowned for its sophisticated infrastructure, impressive technology, enhanced customer satisfaction, and excellent operational proficiency. Strategically located at Nhava Sheva near Mumbai, it serves as a momentous gateway for international trade and handles more than half of India’s container volumes via sea transport.

With foresight and leadership, he successfully developed one of the young major ports in India. The success of JNPA is a testament to his great legacy.
The team behind JNPA is also instrumental for creating such an iconic port. They have played a vital role in setting up the port, constantly improving its quality, and ensuring that it meets global standards.
