Gemlik: terminals and cargoes
Gemlik is the port of Bursa, Turkey's main car-making and textile region. Several private terminals line the bay.
The main terminals
| Terminal | Where | Typical cargoes |
|---|---|---|
| Gemport | Gemlik | Multipurpose: containers, general and bulk cargo |
| Borusan Port | Gemlik | Multipurpose: containers, steel, general cargo, Ro-Ro |
| Roda Port | Gemlik | Containers |
A rough guide only: most terminals handle more than what is listed, and the cargo mix changes with trade, markets and sanctions. Your agent will know what a berth is taking at the moment.
What arrives and what leaves
Containers carry the export goods of Bursa's factories, cars and car parts go out by Ro-Ro, and steel, project cargo and bulk come in.
Surveys on a typical call
Damage surveys, tally and lashing checks are the usual work at the container and steel terminals. Bulk calls need draft surveys. See the damage survey, tally and draft survey guides.
Practical notes
- The terminals are close together in the Gemlik bay. Name the terminal in your request.

Finding a surveyor
