Ship supply at Dalian
No ship chandler has activated Dalian yet. The nearest port where a ship chandler is activated is Yinkou (CNYIK), 200 km away by great circle. A requirement posted here — provisions, bonded stores and deck, engine and cabin stores, each line an IMPA-coded catalogue item or a specified manual item with its unit — still counts: it alerts the sourcing desk, which recruits for Dalian in the order requirements arrive, and the first ship chandler to activate the port takes its requests uncontested.
