The world's largest entrepôt port is generally considered to be Hong Kong. Hong Kong has become the largest entrepôt port mainly due to the following factors. Firstly, its geographical location is advantageous. It is located on the southern coast of China and is an important hub connecting Asia with the rest of the world. Secondly, Hong Kong has advanced and efficient port facilities. The Kwai Chung Container Terminal is one of the busiest container terminals in the world, capable of handling a large volume of cargo loading, unloading, and transshipment. Thirdly, Hong Kong has a complete supporting service system for finance, law, logistics, etc. The Hong Kong financial market is mature, providing strong financial support for trade; the legal system is sound, ensuring the standardized conduct of trade activities; and the logistics service is efficient, capable of quickly handling the flow of goods. Many well-known multinational corporations have established regional headquarters in Hong Kong, further promoting the development of entrepôt trade.
These factors jointly contribute to Hong Kong's important position in the field of entrepôt trade.
