“The Port of São Francisco has been achieving these positive results because it is fully prepared to meet market demands and requirements. This is yet another result that confirms its importance to both Santa Catarina’s and Brazil’s international trade,” said Beto Martins, Secretary of Ports, Airports and Railways (Spaf).
