📋 Tender Overview
The federal government, through the Ministry of Ports and Airports, has been making important investments in port infrastructure works throughout the country, with the objective of strengthening the sector, expanding cargo movement, modernizing facilities, improving the safety of operations and promoting balanced and sustainable development.
The impact of these investments is evident. In March, for example, the Port of Cabedelo, in Joao Pessoa (PB), reached the mark of 172 thousand tons of busy cargo, especially the import of petcoke and fuels. The result confirms the continuous growth of the terminal, which consolidates itself as a strategic pillar for the regional economy.
By 2025, Porto has already surpassed 285 thousand busy tons, reaffirming its importance for international trade. This breakthrough is accompanied by a broad process of modernization, including the construction of a new containers courtyard, drainage and paving improvements and the expansion of operational capacity. The works aim to make the terminal even more efficient and competitive in the global scenario.
The Minister of Ports and Airports, Silvio Costa Filho, highlighted the relevance of these numbers to Brazilian infrastructure: This record is a reflection of our governments investments in strengthening our ports, so important for commerce and generation of employment and income for the population, said the minister.
Social responsibility
It is also important to highlight that in addition to structural advances, the port of Cabedelo invests in social actions that directly benefit the community. The Porto Cidade program promotes the health and well-being of the population of Cabedelo, offering free medical appointments and free laboratory tests.
The terminal also features the truck center, a modern structure for organizing the logistics flow, capable of housing 700 trucks and facilitating cargo runoff.
The Logistic Support Center received R 16 million in investments, the result of a partnership between the Ministry of Ports and Airports, the Government of Paraiba and Companhia Docas-PB.
