Braila Harbour was historically attested for the first time as a crucial hub directing goods from the three Romanian countries via land and water.
Following the liberation of Braila, operations modernized. The Docs and warehouses, brilliantly designed by famous engineer Anghel Saligny, officially started to operate.
Cereals had an important share within the structure of trade. Facilities were limited to 5 electrical quay cranes, 3 tugboats, and manual labor by 2,850 workers.
Major investments transformed the harbor. Traffic skyrocketed from 428,000 tons in 1950 to an astounding 2,360,000 tons in 1987, handling diverse materials like phosphates, ores, and rolled products.
1.2 Hectares dedicated to bulk quarry materials.
