Our high performance team of sea freight service professionals offer many years’ experience delivering shipping containers to Lae.
Lae, the capital of Morobe Province, holds the distinction of being the second-largest city in Papua New Guinea. Situated near the delta of the Markham River and serving as the starting point of the Highlands Highway, Lae occupies a strategic position as the primary land transport corridor between the Highlands Region and the coast. Renowned as the largest cargo port in the country and the industrial hub of Papua New Guinea, Lae is affectionately known as the Garden City and is home to the University of Technology.
Located 8 kilometers (5.0 mi) outside Lae, the Papua New Guinea University of Technology stands as the second-largest university in the country, following its ‘sister’ institution, the University of Papua New Guinea in Port Moresby. While the University of Papua New Guinea focuses on arts, pure sciences, law, and medicine, the University of Technology specializes in research in technological and applied sciences. It proudly holds the distinction of being the only technological university in the South Pacific, outside of Australia and New Zealand.
Lae experiences a tropical rainforest climate. The region is more influenced by the Intertropical Convergence Zone than the trade winds, resulting in an absence of cyclones and a high amount of precipitation. The average annual rainfall in Lae is approximately 4,500 millimeters (180 inches), and no month sees less than 200 millimeters (7.9 inches) of rainfall on average. Temperature variations throughout the year are minimal, with January averaging around 28 °C (82 °F) and July averaging around 25 °C (77 °F).
Lae City proudly boasts of having the finest food market in Papua New Guinea. This is attributed to the exceptional quality of agricultural produce from the Morobe Province, including taros, bananas, sweet potatoes, yams, fruits, and vegetables. These products have garnered popularity among both the local population and expatriates. The Lae Main Market serves as a hub for foodstuffs and vegetables sourced from the Highlands Provinces. In addition to the main market, smaller markets and mini-markets cater to the needs of the city’s growing population.
Nadzab Airport, located 56 kilometers (35 mi) outside Lae City along the Highlands Highway, sits adjacent to the Markham River. Local buses operate to and from the city, while escorted secured transfers provide transportation into the city. To reach Lae from Port Moresby, domestic flights are the primary mode of transport. Air Niugini, Airlines of Papua New Guinea (also known as “Airlines PNG”), and Travel Air “Mangi lo Ples” offer services on the Port Moresby-Lae route.
