India's east coast gateway to the Chennai-Vladivostok Eastern Maritime Corridor.
Chennai Port is a major east coast gateway and the Indian origin point for the now-operational Chennai-Vladivostok Eastern Maritime Corridor — a direct sea route into Russia's Pacific gateway that shortens the journey for cargo that would otherwise have to travel the length of the country to a western port.
That matters most for South Indian exporters and importers, including cargo originating in Tamil Nadu and inland industrial hubs like Bangalore and the wider state of Karnataka. Instead of trucking goods across the subcontinent to Mumbai or Mundra, Chennai offers a more direct eastern route alongside the traditional westbound options to St. Petersburg and Novorossiysk.
RR Brothers plans Chennai-origin shipments through our wider India network, coordinated by our Mumbai and Coimbatore offices, with the route chosen — eastern or western — based on your cargo's destination and schedule requirements.
