Each of the 24 most important ports on the Yangtze, from Luzhou in the west to Taicang in the east, are profiled in detail. The profiles include an overview of the city’s economy and its leading industries, local transport infrastructure and port strengths and weaknesses, backed up with detailed tidal, berthing, mechanical handling, storage and contact information.

The new edition also contains a directory of service providers in each of the port cities, including 3PLs, Customs brokers, bunkering firms, shipping lines and shipping agents.
