The public silos at the Port of Paranaguá registered the highest volume of shipments in the last ten years. The amount of soybeans, in grain and bran, amounted to almost 1.66 million tons in the first half of this year, an increase of 67.8%, in relation to the volume shipped by the complex in 2019 (about 988.4 thousand tons). The structure is managed by the public company Portos do Paraná and is part of the Export Corridor complex at the Port of Paranaguá. The Port of Paranaguá has two public silos: one vertical, dedicated to soybeans, with a capacity to store up to 100 thousand tons; and four horizontal, with total capacity for 60 thousand tons of soybean meal. Through these structures, companies that do not have their own terminals in Paranaguá operate. For the efficiency of the process, Portos do Paraná uses the Export Corridor Logistics System (Silog), which analyzes a series of variables for scheduling unloading in public silos.
