Port of Itaqui surpasses 2018 movement

What was only a prediction has been confirmed this weekend. During the early morning of the 9th, with the loading of corn from the ship Super Luna, the Port of Itaqui surpassed the total cargo handled in 2018 and has reached, on Monday morning (11/11), 22.5m tons.

The record result is mainly due to fuel, corn, and fertilizer operations, in addition to the investments of EMAP – Maranhense Port Administration Company, operators and terminals in productivity.

The movement of fuel to the warehouse is 76% above the accumulated from January to November 2018. Corn flow increased 37% and the increase in fertilizer loads is 12% compared to the 11 months of last year.

“These numbers reflect the tenants’ and operators’ confidence in our corridor, discipline and operational efficiency through the culture we have implemented since 2015, and completed and ongoing public and private investments,” says Port of Itaqui President Ted Lago.
