The port of Fuzhou in southeastern Fujian province claimed the top spot globally, followed by Dalian in northeastern China in second place. Hong Kong ranked ninth. Oman's Salalah port was the only non‑Chinese facility in the top three, placing third.The CPPI, launched in 2020, measures how quickly ports process vessels, with longer turnaround times indicating higher risks of delays and supply bottlenecks. The index covered more than 400 ports worldwide.The report comes as global supply chains face intense pressures from the Red Sea crisis and the ongoing fallout from the US‑Israel war on Iran. While many ports around the world have struggled with congestion and delays, Chinese facilities have maintained stable performance through a combination of automation, robust capacity, and operational discipline.According to the World Bank and S&P Global, ports in East and South Asia remain world‑leading due to strong export focus, intense inter‑port competition, and sustained investment in infrastructure.The report singled out Ningbo in eastern Zhejiang province as an example of how Asian ports have navigated fluctuating supply chain stresses. The facility was able to maintain stable ship turnaround times thanks to its robust capacity, automation, and disciplined operations.The results underscore China's growing logistical advantage at a time when geopolitical conflicts are disrupting traditional maritime routes. As Western nations struggle to keep goods moving, China's port network continues to set the global benchmark for efficiency.
