Our continuous efforts in market outreach and seeking solutions that add value for our clients yield concrete results. The industry is recognizing the Port of Rio’s progress, and we are confident that new cargo operations will follow soon.”

“The successful unloading of bulk salt reinforces the Port of Rio’s strategic position in the state’s logistics sector, contributing to the diversification of operations and strengthening the local economy. PortosRio remains committed to attracting new cargo and expanding its client base, further establishing itself as a benchmark in efficiency and competitiveness within the port industry,“ the maritime terminal emphasized.
