Port of São Francisco reports third consecutive yearly profit

The Port of São Francisco do Sul posted a profit of 15.3 million reais in 2025. Added to the 26.5 million reais recorded in 2024 and 29.7 million reais in 2023, the result brings accumulated profit over the past three years to 71.5 million reais.

The financial statements and management report were presented this week by the port authority’s board to the Port Administration Council, which recommended approval of the results.

At the close of 2025, the company also reported cash availability of 91.3 million reais, representing growth of 8% from the 84.5 million reais recorded in 2024.

Part of those resources is being directed to structural works, including the addition of two extra lanes on BR-280 near the port and the deepening dredging of the access channel to Babitonga Bay.

The financial result also makes it possible to distribute profit-sharing bonuses to employees through the Results Participation Program, under which the payment is the same for all workers, from directors and managers to those earning the lowest wages.

According to port president Cleverton Vieira, the strong financial performance is the result of careful planning in the use of tariff revenue. “Our management focuses on organizing and rationalizing expenses, with an emphasis on cost control, in order to make investments in works and services that expand our operating capacity and infrastructure possible,” he said, adding that the profit generated by the public company is fully reinvested in the port itself and in its road, rail and waterway access routes.

According to Vieira, the model creates a cycle in which the efficiency of the state-owned company increases the volume of investments funded with its own resources, with the goal of improving service to users of the port complex.
