- The turnover of the Port Authority of Valencia (APV) reached €164.3 million (+9.02%) last year, while pre-tax profits amounted to €43.7 million (+50.51%)
- Valenciaport handled 5.66 million containers (TEU) last year, representing an increase of 3.41% compared to 2024, setting a new record
Valencia, February 9th, 2026 – The Board of Directors of the Port Authority of Valencia (APV) has assessed the provisional financial results for the 2025 financial year, as well as the traffic recorded during the past year, which have resulted in an increase in both turnover and TEU traffic. These figures reflect the commitment of container shipping companies to the Valenciaport facilities.
This was explained by the president of the APV, Mar Chao, at the first meeting of the Board of Directors in 2026. The provisional results for 2025 show a 9% increase in turnover, while profits rose by 50%, in line with the management strategy pursued by Spain’s leading port in terms of container traffic in its ambitious investment plan to increase capacity and meet the competitive agility demanded by users and customers.
In terms of traffic data, the 2025 financial year closed with container traffic (TEU) reaching 5.66 million, representing an increase of 3.41% compared to 2024 and a new record high for the end of the financial year. “These figures are a clear sign of the commitment of container shipping companies to Valenciaport, although we must remain cautious given the complicated international context,” said Mar Chao.
Container traffic consolidates the results
Valenciaport closed the 2025 financial year with a net turnover of €164.3 million, which is €13.60 million more than in 2024 and an increase of 9.02%. This growth was mainly driven by increased traffic and, consequently, by an improvement in the budget item relating to port fees, which rose from €126.9 million in 2024 to €139.9 million in 2025 (an increase of 10.27%).
Pre-tax profits rose to €43.7 million, representing an increase of 50.51% compared to the figures for 2024, when this indicator stood at €29 million.
Mar Chao emphasized that these figures clearly reflect the “economic stability of Valenciaport” and represent an important stepping stone for continuing with the “ambitious investment plan set out in our Strategic Plan, which is key to strengthening the competitiveness and sustainability of the Valencian port system.”
The year-end advance also reflects a cash flow of €82.8 million, €12.3 million more than in 2024. Operating expenses stood at €135.96 million, 0.94% more than in the previous year, mainly due to the increase in external services. On the other hand, there has been a decrease in impairment expenses and fixed assets, amounting to €3.35 million less.
Record high in container traffic
Container traffic has reached a new record high this year. In this regard, imports of full containers stand out, with the figure exceeding one million TEU (20-foot containers, or 6.1 meters) for the first time in history, specifically 1,051,784. 50.73% of these imports came from China, representing an increase of 19.62% over the previous year, while the rest of the countries have increased their exports by 11.63%.
Exports grew by 5.56% to reach 919,570 TEU, with the US being the main destination for goods, increasing its traffic by 5.06% compared to the previous year despite the strength of the euro and tariff policies. The US accounts for 14.66% of full container exports in 2025.
The number of regular passengers also increased in 2025 by 3.54%, with a total of 861,748 passengers. The service corresponds to 87.9% with the Balearic Islands, while 12.11% corresponds to the service with Algeria. In 2025, this service carried a total of 104,446 passengers, which compared to 88,681 in the previous period, represents an increase of 17.73%.
Passengers on tourist cruises reached 799,050, representing a moderate increase of 3.23% over the previous year.
Valenciaport’s participation in Fruit Logistic
Mar Chao also informed the Board about the APV’s attendance at the Fruit Logistic trade fair in Berlin, where Valenciaport’s logistical, multimodal, and digital strengths in the transport of refrigerated goods were showcased. Before various international operators, the APV highlighted the complementary nature of the three ports that comprise it – Valencia, Sagunt, and Gandia – emphasizing their specialization. It has also highlighted its commitment to digitalization, innovation applied to port processes, social responsibility, and the strategic role of the Logistics Activities Zone (ZAL) as a central hub of services for the supply chain has also been emphasized.
