PORT OF SUAPE PREPARES TO OVERCOME CHALLENGES

The Suape Port Industrial Complex in Pernambuco has completed 45 years of existence with about BRL 75 billion in private investments and the operation of 83 enterprises, creating around 17.5 thousand new jobs. Despite obstacles such as dredging, high tariffs, and regional rivalry, the port is committed to doubling cargo output. Plans include reaching 50 million tons by 2030 and increasing passage depth to 20 meters. The president of the port complex emphasizes the importance of celebrating accomplishments, highlighting the port’s position as a reference in processing liquid bulk, containers, and automobiles. Despite facing constraints, the Port of Suape is actively pursuing new opportunities such as the Araripe gypsum chain.
