DP World announced an additional investment of US$40 million for the expansion and improvement of the Paita Port Terminal. This investment, which will be made in partnership with Yilport, will extend until 2029.
Recent operations have had as their main objective the optimization of the port’s infrastructure and the improvement of truck access to increase its operating capacity. Three cranes have been added, two dock cranes and one yard crane, with the aim of increasing the port’s capacity by 50%.
In addition, DP World is close to completing the Callao Bicentennial Dock project. Half of the dock is already in operation and capacity will be added progressively until April. The expansion aims to reach a capacity of up to 2.7 million containers.
DP World also plans to acquire three additional dock cranes, which would involve an investment of US$15 million each. The company is working on other projects for the port of Callao, which include the implementation of solar panels, windmills and the acquisition of 20 electric trucks.
