The contribution of specific products, which reached substantial percentages in comparison to 2020, to the Port of Vitória’s record-breaking cargo handling last year was significant.

In 2021, 818 ships docked in the Port of Vitória, up 19.24 percent from the previous year’s total of 686 ships. The majority (53.89%) were long-haul, with cabotage navigation coming in second (46.11 percent). Cargo landing accounted for 53.59%, while loading accounted for 46.41%.
