Since it opened in 1995, JMCT has completed ten warehouses with a total area of 10,000 square metres, with half being over 1,500 square metres in size. JMCT is also capable of handling reefer and dangerous cargo, using X-ray machines and CCTV systems to facilitate cargo inspection and on-site customs clearance at the terminal.
