The participation of the Port of Itaqui in the event AgroBalsas 2023 centered on strategic actions for the development of Maranhão through the grain production chain, which involves soy, corn, fertilizers, and fuel. Sustainable soy production was one of the main topics discussed, highlighting the growing demand for sustainable origin certifications and Maranhão’s role in this context. The Port of Itaqui was visited by the CEO of GEES S.A., José Antônio Gorgen, to discuss investments in a new grain and fertilizer terminal. The inauguration of the Petrobahia Fuel Distribution Base in Balsas further strengthens the role of the Port of Itaqui in the region. These results demonstrate the importance of the Port of Itaqui for Maranhão as a regional and national hub for cargo transportation, especially for grains, fertilizers, and fuels.
