Hongkong International Terminals (HIT)
is the flagship operation of the Hutchison
Port Holdings (HPH) Group, the world's leading
port investor, developer and operator.
Situated in the Kwai Chung container
port area of Hong Kong - one of the busiest container
ports, HIT operates twelve berths at (Terminals 4,
6, 7 and 9) and another two through its joint venture
with COSCO Pacific Limited at Terminal 8 (East). In
2006, HIT and COSCO-HIT handled a combined throughput
of 8.235 million TEU, over 50% of Kwai Tsing's container
port traffic.
Established in 1969, HIT has continuously set the industry benchmarks for productivity, efficiency and value-added services. Using modern management techniques, state-of-the-art computer systems and award winning IT applications, HIT has become the centre of excellence for the group, Hutchison Port Holdings.
HIT plays a key role in the continuing
development of the port of Hong Kong, ensuring the
port has the resources, facilities and people required
to achieve smooth and efficient handling of container
cargoes.
As global trade and the needs for logistics
chain management increases, HIT has diversified its
operations beyond the traditional role of a container
port operator. HIT has leveraged the strength of HPH's
port and related operations in southern China and
the Pearl River Delta to develop a logistics network
based on the principles of efficiency, productivity
and cost-effectiveness. Our ultimate goal is the creation
of an integrated supply chain network, with total
logistics management services.
