@Toyota: Toyota Tsusho Participates in the Container Terminal Operation Business of the Patimban International Port, Indonesia

Toyota Tsusho Corporation (“Toyota Tsusho”) announced today that it has invested in PT. Patimban Global Gateway Terminal (“PGT”), which will operate a container terminal currently under construction at the Patimban International Port in Subang Regency, West Java, the Republic of Indonesia (“Indonesia”).

As a result, Toyota Tsusho will be involved in the operation of both container terminal and automobile terminal in Patimban International Port.

Traffic congestion has been prevalent in the Jakarta Metropolitan Area, and at the Tanjung Priok International Port in northern Jakarta, logistics stagnation has been a long-standing issue such as with the continuous adverse effects on access to the eastern industrial zone, where many factories of Japanese companies exist. Therefore, as a national strategic project, the Indonesian government has been utilizing Japanese ODA loan to promote the construction of the Patimban International Port, which consists of an automobile terminal and container terminal, since 2018.

Toyota Tsusho has been operating the automobile terminal through its operating company, PT. Patimban International Car Terminal, since 2021.

Toyota Tsusho will operate the container terminal through PGT, together with Africa Global Logistics of the Mediterranean Shipping Company Group, the world’s largest container shipping company, and Samudera Pelabuhan Indonesia of the Samudera Group, a major shipping company in Indonesia^*1.

PGT plans to begin operating the container terminal in 2026, gradually increasing its handling capacity and eventually expanding to approximately 3.75 million TEUs^*2/year.
