Refrigerated goods such as bananas are the main imports. The shipping routes will help exports of chemicals, minerals, and metal products from Northeast China to the ports of Laem Chabang and Hochiminh, contributing to Dalian port's status as hub of foreign container trade and cold chain logistics.
