Egg Supplier Yokohama Port
Yokohama is one of Japan principal container ports and the gateway to the greater Tokyo region, so it anchors the high-specification egg programmes we run into Japan.
In short: We ship weight-graded white and brown table eggs from Nhava Sheva (JNPT) and Mundra to Yokohama Port, transit about 14 to 18 days from India's ports, in pre-cooled reefers held at 5–8 °C, agreed per destination. Minimum order is one 20 ft reefer (≈ 236,160 eggs).
Transit & reefer handling
Transit: about 14 to 18 days from India's ports.
Cold chain: reefer held at 5–8 °C, agreed per destination.
Japanese terminals are meticulous with reefer cargo and quarantine inspection, which suits the monitored, pre-cooled transport we use for the long lane from India.
Documentation
Japan loads carry veterinary and quarantine documentation to MAFF import requirements, with salmonella and food-safety controls recorded per batch.

- Certificate of origin, commercial invoice and packing list
- Bill of lading
Japan is a high-specification market with rigorous food-safety and quarantine expectations, which means tight grading tolerances, salmonella control and precise paperwork. Yokohama handles the container trade feeding the Tokyo-Yokohama conurbation. We load weight-graded white and brown table eggs at Nhava Sheva (JNPT) and Mundra and ship them in monitored, pre-cooled reefers for the fourteen-to-eighteen-day lane.
We approach Japan on the basis it demands: fully traceable batches, documented food-safety controls and consistent Large and Extra-large grades. Because the sailing is long, temperature monitoring and robust packing protect Haugh unit and shell integrity on arrival. We confirm the quarantine document set and specification with the importer before loading, so cargo clears Yokohama without issue.
