May, 17, 2021 Posted by Ruth HollardWeek 202122
Bahia’s organized ports handled 1,146,575 tons in April, an increase of 49.09% over 2020.
For the first time, the 1-million-ton mark was surpassed in the period. It was the best month of April ever recorded in the history of CODEBA and the eighth consecutive record-breaking month.
The results indicate stability in exports from the port sector, contributing to the recovery of the economy in Bahia. In the same month, the state’s exports reached US$ 840.5 million, an increase of 55.5%.
The overall performance of the ports managed by CODEBA was marked by the results of the Port of Aratu-Candeias, with an increase of 58.59% in relation to April 2020. The Port of Salvador also increased, by 28.32% in comparison to the same period of the previous year.
Up to June, 240,000 tons of soybeans will be handled at the Port of Ilhéus. “It is a very significant comeback for the sector in Bahia. It also proves the potential of Bahian ports to raise the bar of negotiations in the Northeast region”, explains the CEO of CODEBA, Carlos Autran Amaral.
