Visakhapatnam

Andhra Pradesh, India — East Coast · Multi-cargo, naval and shipyard

Also known as Vizag

Visakhapatnam is a natural deep-water harbour handling containers, bulk, crude and general cargo alongside a substantial naval and shipbuilding presence. The mix is unusually broad for an east coast port, and so are the requisitions: a bulk carrier and a yard refit want very different lists.

Working Visakhapatnam

  • Inner and outer harbour berths differ in access and security regime, and the pass route follows the berth.
  • Naval and yard work brings extended stays, where provisioning becomes recurring rather than one-off.
  • Deep draft supports large parcels, so crew numbers and store volumes run higher than at neighbouring ports.

How we supply Visakhapatnam

One of our stronger east coast positions, and a port where we regularly supply vessels on repeat calls and extended yard periods rather than single transits, so the requisition history carries forward. In May 2026 we delivered 200 T8 fluorescent tubes and Indian courtesy flags to a vessel here.

Visakhapatnam: questions we are asked

Can you supply a vessel through a yard period at Visakhapatnam?

Yes. We schedule repeat deliveries across the stay rather than one large order at arrival.

Does inner or outer harbour make a difference?

Yes, for access. Passes and the delivery route depend on the berth, so send the berth with the requisition.

Can you deliver at Visakhapatnam anchorage?

Yes, by boat, subject to weather, port clearance and launch availability.
