It has a total quay length of 3,000 meters and a total berth capacity of 12 million tonnes. The port handles a variety of cargo, including coal, iron ore, containers, and crude oil.<\/p>\n<p>In 2018-19, Krishnapatnam Port handled a total cargo of 43.5 million tonnes. This was an increase of 10% over the previous year. The port&#8217;s revenue for the same period was Rs. 2,200 crore.<\/p>\n<p>Krishnapatnam Port is a major economic hub for Andhra Pradesh. It provides employment to over 10,000 people and contributes significantly to the state&#8217;s GDP.
