== History ==
The port was established on 26 May 1989.

JN Port is the biggest container handling port in India,{{citation needed|date=May 2018}} handling around 55% of the country’s containerized cargo, crossing the historic landmark of 4 million TEUs ([[Twenty-foot equivalent unit]]s) in container throughout consecutively for the last five years.{{citation needed|date=May 2018}} In its coveted role as the Hub Port on the West Coast of India, JNP is ranked 28th among the top 100 Container Ports in the world.{{citation needed|date=January 2019}}

Having set for itself a long-term goal of achieving 10 million TEUs by the year 2020-21, through addition of two more Terminals, viz. the 330M Stand-alone Container Terminals (DP World) and the 4th Container Terminal (Port of Singapore Authority) and a Satellite Port at Vadhvan Point, JNP throws open an array of worthwhile opportunities for the maritime trade, including the shipping lines and shippers, to ferry their cargo to various sectors across the globe.

JNP consist of a full-fledged Custom House, 30 Container Freight Stations and connectivity to 52 Inland Container Depots across the country. The hinterland connectivity both by rail and road is being further strengthened by ongoing projects like the Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC), which will increase the existing train capacity of 27 to 100 trains per day; Multi-Modal Logistics Park (MMLP) and widening of the Port road connectivity. Its proximity to the Cities of Mumbai, Navi Mumbai and Pune; airports; hotels, exhibition centres, etc. gives the Port an extra edge to address the shippers’ needs, efficiently and promptly.

==Facilities==

The JNP Trust (JNPT) Container Terminal is operated by JNPT. It has a quay length of {{convert|680|m|ft}} with 3 berths.<ref name=jnpt-ct>{{cite web|url=http://jnport.gov.in/CMSPage.aspx?PageID=5 |title=JNPT Container Terminal |publisher=Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust |access-date=2011-09-23 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111017091418/http://www.jnport.gov.in/CMSPage.aspx?PageID=5 |archive-date=2011-10-17 }}</ref>

The Nhava Sheva International Container Terminal (NSICT) is leased to a consortium led by [[Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company|P & O]], now a part of [[DP World]]. Commissioned in July 2000, it has a {{convert|600|m|ft}} quay length with two berths. It can handle up to 62.15 million tons of cargo.<ref name=jnpt-nsict>{{cite web|url=http://jnport.gov.in/CMSPage.aspx?PageID=10 |title=NSICT Private Terminal |publisher=Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust |access-date=2011-09-23 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111017091522/http://www.jnport.gov.in/CMSPage.aspx?PageID=10 |archive-date=2011-10-17 }}</ref> NSICT was India’s first privately managed container terminal. In the year 2006, GTI (Gateway Terminals India Pvt Ltd), a third container terminal operated by APM Terminals, with the capacity to handle 1.3 Million TEUs was commissioned. A new standalone container terminal by the name of NSIGT having a quay length of 330 m and a capacity of 12.5 Million Tonnes will be fully operational by July, 2016. The fourth container terminal, Bharat Mumbai Container Terminals (BMCT), will be developed and operated by [[PSA International]]. The Phase 1 with capacity of 2.4 Million TEUs p.a. had completed in Dec 2017. The terminal will have full capacity of 4.8 Million TEUs p.a. and a quay length of 2,000 m by the completion of Phase 2.

In 2006 the port implemented the logistics data tagging of containers.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Arora|first1=Rajat|title=JNPT becomes first port in logistics data tagging of containers|url=https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/transportation/shipping-/-transport/jnpt-becomes-first-port-in-logistics-data-tagging-of-containers/articleshow/53047393.cms|access-date=11 May 2018|agency=The Economics Times}}</ref> JNPT houses India’s best logistics connectivity with facilitation from Container Freight Stations and Logistics parks owned by government as well as private players namely Maharashtra State Warehousing Corporation, DRT, Gateway District Park, Allcargo, Avashya, Continental Warehousing, Ameya Logistics, TransIndia and Contegrate Entrepot. JNPT authorities have been trying to implement direct port delivery model of the containers, a first of its kind model promoted under the ease of doing business in India.
